GRAEME SOUNESS: A jumped-up UEFA minion tells us we can't sing our national anthem after the death of our Queen of 70 years? Dream on! Rangers were right to defy such a ridiculous order

It made me equally sad and angry that a handful of people showed disrespect during the minute's silence at a couple of games this week.

The bottom line is that someone has died. A family are in mourning. It happens to be our Queen. My Queen. A woman who has given 70 years of selfless service. The supreme example of what it is to be a public servant.

I make no claim to be a historian but I say without the remotest doubt we are talking about the greatest woman to have lived within our shores and arguably the greatest Briton ever.
