GOALSCORER Jamal Lowe has praised Bristol City fans after they clapped his tribute to David Brooks during his celebration – but admits he was struggling to find the shirt!

Lowe opened for Cherries 21 minutes into the contest, weaving inbetween defenders to convert a Jack Stacey cross – before unfurling a Brooks shirt.

The whole stadium clapped and cheered the tribute, which came after a round of applause in the seventh minute from the ground too.

Speaking after the game, Lowe revealed more about the move, saying: “Yeah that was arranged before the game, it was just trying to find it,” he added: “It took me a while to find the shirt!

“But we found it and obviously everyone’s thoughts and prayers are with Brooksy now. Obviously everyone is in contact with him wishing him well, but at the same time we have got to respect his privacy, he’s obviously going through a tough time but he knows he’s got people around him.

After Scott Parker had devoted the performance to Brooks, Lowe agreed: “That’s it, it has been a tough week but to bring some positivity to the club at the minute is great, all the fans that turned up today were very vocal, outsung the home support.

Asked about his reaction to the Bristol City fans clapping him after scoring, he added: “To be fair I think on the seventh minute as well so fair play to them.

“I think Brooksy deserves that to be fair and the Bristol fans did it well so good shout to them,” before joking: “Ordinarily they might have booed celebrating in front of them but you can’t boo that can you?”
