MFC will observe a moment of silence to honour members of the armed forces who made the ultimate sacrifice whilst in the line of duty.​

Saturday's game against Bristol City is our last dedicated home fixture before Remembrance Sunday and a period of quiet reflection will take place prior to kick-off.

The silence will commence on the referee’s whistle before the bugler plays the Last Post.
Both team captains and the referee will carry wreaths onto the pitch and lay them down at the centre circle for the moment of silence.
The fourth official will then collect the wreaths, which will later be hung up on the Ayresome Park gates.
As special guests of MFC, Yorkshire Regiment, British Legion, Military Police, Parachute Regiment and 282 Squadron Coulby Newham have all been invited to the game.

Each regiment will bring their own wreath and regiment flag and will stand pitchside just before kick-off.
These wreaths will also be laid on the pitch as the period of reflection starts and picked up once the bulgar has finished sounding the Last Post.
Four Boro academy players will also be involved in the laying of the wreaths.
