Argy bargy = chargy

One game, one FA charge. Not for ASBO, but for the club as a whole, for failing to control the players. Which begs the question: when has the club ever been fully in control of its footballing employees? We've stated an intention to fight it.

Arsenal have been charged with the same offence while, as expected, Alex Song's stamp on ASBO also attracted the authorities' attention. At least Gervinho will have some company in the stands, eh? Another kick in the swingers for Arsene Wenger on a day when it was confirmed he's lost his prized possession to Barcelona.

I love the way the FA never accepts responsibility. Their appointed referee is the one who failed to control the players by allowing Gervinho (Divinho) to dive all game and Song to stamp on Barton. If he had of put a stop to that it the 'brawl' would never have happened.

I'd like to know who the FA considers to have been out of control. Barton pulled up Gervinho by the scruff of the neck, for which he was reprimanded with a yellow card, and thus not subject to further disciplinary action.

Who are these "players" (plural) that NUFC is alleged to have failed to control?
