F.A CHARGES FRANK LAMPARD WITH IMPROPER CONDUCT

Frank Lampard has been charged with misconduct by the Football Association (FA) after Derby County’s Championship game against Birmingham City.

Lampard confronted referee, Simon Hooper after a 2-2 draw last Friday, the Derby boss feeling his side had been denied a penalty.

Lampard has until Monday to respond to a FA charge that alleges “his language and/or behaviour on the field of play after the conclusion of the fixture amounts to improper conduct”.

It is the second time this season; Lampard, in his first campaign as a manager, has been in trouble with the FA.

In September the former Chelsea and England midfielder accepted a fine of £2,000 after he was sent off during a defeat to Rotherham United.

Derby are on track to qualify for the play-offs, with Lampard’s side sixth in the table and with a game in hand over seventh-placed Middlesbrough.
