Ex-England footballer Trevor Sinclair DELETES his tweet saying 'black and brown' people should not mourn the Queen - and his Twitter account - as radio station talkSPORT face calls to sack him after he went AWOL

Former England footballer Trevor Sinclair has deleted his Tweeting saying 'black and brown' people should not mourn the death of Queen Elizabeth II as she allowed racism to 'thrive' during her reign.

Sinclair's Tweet came shortly after Buckingham Palace announced the Queen's death on Thursday evening. Fans were quick to criticise the 49-year-old and call for TalkSPORT to sack the football pundit.

As a result, TalkSPORT have been trying to make contact with Sinclair but the radio station have been unable to reach the former Manchester City midfielder following the incident.
