FORMER Darlington goalkeeper David Stockdale is to pay his own tribute to two footballers killed in the Shoreham air disaster.
Stockdale will turn out for Brighton against Ipswich in the Championship tomorrow.
Two of those killed when a vintage jet crashed onto the A27 in West Sussex last weekend had links to the Seagulls - Matt Grimstone was a groundsman, while Jacob Schilt was a fan of the club.

Stockdale is to wear gloves emblazoned with the names Matt and Jacob, in memory of the pair who were on their way to play for Worthing United when disaster struck.
Stockdale, who played for Darlington between 2006 and 2008, told BBC Sussex: "Our thoughts are firmly with the families and friends of all affected."
