Trevor Sinclair has apologised for any offence caused after his controversial tweet about the Queen on the day of her death.
Queen Elizabeth II sadly passed away on Thursday, aged 96. She died peacefully at her Balmoral estate after a 70-year reign. Many in football have paid tribute to the beloved monarch, with fixtures in the UK on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday postponed as a mark of respect.
Yet Sinclair, who represented England at the World Cup in 2002, penned a tweet in protest of the monarchy. The 49-year-old wrote: "Racism was outlawed in England in the 60's & its been allowed to thrive so why should black & brown mourn!! #queen."
