United fans' Munich tribute

Manchester United fans will pay their annual tribute to the victims of the Munich air disaster prior to tomorrow's Premiership encounter with Birmingham.

Supporters will gather for a short ceremony at 2pm underneath the Munich memorial outside Old Trafford to pay their respects to the victims of the tragedy and sing the 'Flowers of Manchester' tribute.

Sunday marks the 47th anniversary of the crash, in which 21 people were killed, including seven United players, when a twin-engined Elizabethan airliner nosedived on take-off following a refuelling stop on its way back from Belgrade.
