The football club is inviting members from Bolton Ukrainian Cultural Centre to the match on Tuesday, where the team will be playing Morecambe FC.

He said: "We want to be in solidarity with Ukrainians in our community at this time, were one club, one community, one town, we're all together.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected at this difficult time."

A spokesman from the Bolton Ukrainian Cultural Centre said: "The Ukrainian community is delighted and thankful for the response from Bolton Wanderers.

"The club has a tradition of family values and the situation with families in the Ukraine is dire.

"All our support from our local club, and its fans, is very much appreciated."
