Bees plan tributes to remember Rowan, who died during the international break.

Brentford will pay their respects to former technical director Robert Rowan at their home game against Middlesbrough on Saturday.

Rowan died of heart failure on November 12 aged just 28 and the Bees have planned a host of tributes at their first game since his death.

There will be a minute of applause before the game and during the match the Brentford players will wear black armbands. However, in a special move, the club has sought permission to add Rowan to its squad list for the remainder of the season.

A club statement said: "Brentford FC will pay tribute to technical director Robert Rowan at their Sky Bet Championship game against Middlesbrough on Saturday. Robert's family, including his wife Suzanne, and friends have been invited to the game.

"The Brentford players will be wearing special black armbands for the game. There will also be a special matchday programme dedicated to Robert's memory. A floral tribute will also be placed on Robert's usual matchday seat for the game against Middlesbrough.

"The club has also sought the permission of the EFL to add Robert to the squad list for the rest of the season. He will be allocated the number five shirt for the 2018/19 season and this will appear on the club website and matchday programme for the rest of the campaign."

Rowan had been with Brentford for four years and had held the post of technical director since February.
