Poppy Shirt At Newcastle

Everton to wear poppy-embroidered shirts this weekend.

Everton will wear special poppy-embroidered shirts for their game against Newcastle.

The Blues have taken delivery of their commemorative strip ahead of the game against Newcastle on Saturday, their last action before Remembrance Sunday.

The poppy design has been added to the amber away shirt which Everton will be wearing this weekend - teamed with amber shorts and socks.

As well as the shirts, a period of silence will be observed before kick-off at St James' Park.

Further tributes will also be made at Everton's first home game after Armistice Day, against Wolves on 19 November, with details announced in due course.
