Both sets of fans will mark the anniversary of the Bradford City fire.

ARSENAL AND HULL fans will join together at today’s FA Cup Final with a minute’s applause to remember those who lost their lives in the Bradford City fire.

Last Sunday marked the 29th anniversary of the 1985 disaster in which 56 fans tragically died in a fire at Valley Parade.

Hull said: “Although no official mark of remembrance has been planned for Saturday’s final, Hull City and Arsenal supporters will be holding a minute’s applause on 56 minutes, an idea that has gathered momentum through social media in recent days and one that is fully endorsed by all at the Tigers.”
