WEST Ham fans will honour the memory of the great Bobby Moore at this Saturday's Premier League clash with Newcastle United at Upton Park.
The Irons have dedicated their penultimate home game of the season to raising money for the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research.
Hammers and England legend Moore passed away following a battle with bowel cancer at the age of just 51 in February 1993.
Since being established by Stephanie 15 years ago, the fund has raised millions for research into the disease, while also keeping alive the memory of West Ham's favourite son.
This weekend, a number of events will be held to raise funds for the charity, named in honour of the man who lifted the FA Cup in 1964, European Cup Winners' Cup in 1965 and World Cup in 1966 before going on to manage Southend United.
A special DVD outlining the work of the fund will be shown on screens at the Boleyn Ground before the game, while collections will be made in and around the ground.
Leaflets will also be distributed and the players will wear special promotional t-shirts to raise awareness of the charity.
Every member of staff has also made a donation, while the two matchday mascot places will be auctioned off to raise funds.
Bowel cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in the UK, with more than 35,000 people diagnosed with and 16,000 people dying from the disease every year.
April is national Bowel Cancer Awareness Month.
