... Newcastle United for John Alder, 63, and Liam Sweeney, 28, who died in the MH17 Malaysia Airlines disaster.
Alan Pardew and captain Fabricio Coloccini were walking up the stand to lay wreaths on the seats of two fans who died in the MH17 tragedy when the broadcasters cut away, prompting fury from viewers.
Adverts intervened with awful timing as the tribute was going on.
Season-ticket holder Daniel Goodall said on Twitter: “BT Sport - well done on cutting to adverts when flowers were getting placed, and managing to miss the majority of the minute’s silence. Disgrace.”
Bill Grieves added: “BT Sport - would have been nice to have shown the full silence for the two Newcastle fans rather than adverts. Fail.”
A BT Sport spokesman: “We apologise for any upset caused by a mistimed break during the Newcastle game.
“The timing was unintentional, and we will show the tributes and the minute’s silence in full at the end of the game, as well as put all the footage online.”
