Tranmere Rovers are set to hold a minute's applause in memory of Olivia Pratt-Korbel.
Tranmere Rovers chairman Nicola Palios has revealed the club are planning a minute's applause after nine minutes during their Carabao Cup match against Newcastle at Prenton Park tonight. The applause is to remember Olivia Pratt-Korbel and show support for the family of the nine-year-old who was fatally shot in her home on Monday night.
The applause has been announced after a number of fans came forward and suggested to the club that it would be a way of remembering the schoolgirl, who lived on Kingsheath Avenue in Dovecot. In a statement, Nicola spoke about the tragic deaths of Olivia, Ashley Dale and Sam Rimmer - who have all lost their lives to gun crime in a week of violence that has shaken the city.
