RUGBY fans heading to Madejski Stadium this afternoon are paying their respects to the victims of the Paris terror attacks.
London Irish host French Top 14 side Agen in the opening game of the European Challenge Cup (3pm kick-off), and many of those present are choosing to show their solidarity with the supporters who have travelled across the channel to watch the contest.
Some have turned up draped in the countries national flag, while others have had their faces painted red, white and blue.

A minute’s silence will also be held prior to kick off.
Nearly 130 people were killed when gunmen and suicide bombers targeted bars and restaurants across the French capital on Friday night – as well as a concert and the international football friendly between France and Germany at the Stade de France.
Scores more were injured during the attacks, with some 80 people described as being in a critical condition.
