Former Manchester City star Trevor Sinclair is being investigated by talkSport after saying that 'black and brown' people should not mourn the Queen's death.
Sinclair, who played 98 times for City over four years after signing for the club in 2003, is being investigated by the radio company, where he works as a football commentator, after tweeting shortly after the monarch's death was announced that racism in the UK had 'thrived' during her long reign. Sporting stars across the globe paid tribute to the Queen, who died yesterday at the age of 96 at Balmoral, but Sinclair tweeted: "Racism was outlawed in England in the 60's & it's been allowed to thrive so why should black and brown mourn!!"
Talksport announced that it was attempting to make contact with Sinclair to discuss the tweet. It said: "talkSport does not support those views expressed and is investigating the matter."
