The players wore black armbands too and the message #WeStandTogether on the back of their shirts, while a special shirt was emblazoned with PC Palmer’s warrant number ‘P204752’ on the sleeve.

Charlton spokesman Olly Groome said this week: “The incident was horrendous which shook the world.
“Then you hear the policeman was a Charlton fan who many of us sat alongside without even knowing who had been coming for the best part of 30 years.
“When you have that common bond, you take it a little bit more personally. When a member of the Charlton family suffers like that, you feel it a bit more.
“You can’t hide the fact that it’s been a difficult few years at the club and there will be some people who haven’t been coming who will be coming as a one-off.
“That shows the strength of it that people are willing to pay tribute to a fellow Addick, as we put it.
“It will be an emotional night where the football takes a back seat a bit, certainly before the first whistle.
“But if Keith was sat up there in the East Stand, as he was for many years, he would have wanted to see Charlton win so that will be playing on minds of the players to do him proud.
“The supporters will want to do him proud too by singing his name and spurring on the players.”
