Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe charged with misconduct by FA for post-match remarks

Howe charged with misconduct

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has been charged with misconduct by the Football Association following comments made after his side's game against Sheffield Wednesday.

The 37-year-old hit out at the match officials after Callum Wilson was denied what Howe believed was a certain penalty when the forward was brought down by Lewis Buxton in last weekend's 2-2 draw at the Goldsands Stadium.

Howe's assistant coach Jason Tindall has also been charged with misconduct after he allegedly insulted a match official after the game against the Owls.

A statement from the FA read: "It is alleged that Mr Howe's media comments following this game constitute improper conduct in that they allege and/or imply bias on the part of a match official or match officials, and/or bring the game into disrepute.

"It is alleged that after the end of the fixture Mr Tindall used abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour towards or in respect of a match official."

Both individuals have until 6pm on April 27 to respond to the charge.
