Sir Alex Ferguson Charged by FA

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has been charged by the FA for misconduct, after being sent off during United’s Premiership game with Newcastle last Saturday.

The cause of the outburst was because of a bad tackle by Andy O’Brien on Ryan Giggs, but referee of the game Uriah Rennie and fourth official Jeff Winter failed to take action on O’Brien. This made Sir Alex furious.

The FA released a statement yesterday, saying:

“The FA has today charged Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson with misconduct for breaches of FA Rule E1 and E2.”
 
”The charges relate to the alleged use of abusive and/or insulting language to a match official during the match between Newcastle United and Manchester United on Saturday, 23rd August.”

“He has 14 days to respond.”
