Scottish clubs pay tribute to the Queen

Dundee United say they are "aware of the actions of a small section of the crowd" who disturbed a minute's silence before the meeting with Rangers.

Rangers fans reacted angrily after the tribute to Queen Elizabeth was broken by noise from the away supporters.

United say they had "reached out to advise" their fans in advance of the game about plans for the Ibrox tribute and the playing of the national anthem.

They added that their expectation was that the silence would be observed.

Rangers went on to win the Scottish Premiership encounter 2-1, with a double by Antonio Colak.

A tribute was also disturbed at the meeting of Hibernian and Aberdeen at Easter Road, while on Sunday the minute's applause at St Mirren's meeting with Celtic in Paisley was disrupted by chants from the away end.

A banner referencing the Royal Family was also displayed by the travelling support, whose club face Uefa disciplinary action after similar actions during their side's Champions League draw with Shakhtar Donetsk on Wednesday.
