Hillsborough Survivors group and Sir Kenny Dalglish call on Liverpool fans to 'respect and observe' tonight's minute's silence for the Queen - or risk 'increasing abuse over Hillsborough' - after supporters' past booing of God Save the Queen

Hillsborough Survivors group and Sir Kenny Dalglish are urging Liverpool fans to show 'respect' during tonight's minute's silence, in memory of Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away late last week.

Liverpool made a request to UEFA for the tribute to be held before the Champions League game against Ajax at Anfield and their manager Jurgen Klopp also insisted it was the right thing for the club to do in this momentous period.

There is antipathy towards the monarchy in some quarters on Merseyside and there was a furore before the FA Cup final in May when William, the new Prince of Wales, was booed by Liverpool fans.
