Leeds United hit with misconduct charge following incident against Brighton

Leeds United have been hit with a second misconduct charge in as many weeks by the FA in relation to crowd control. The Whites were charged last week for an incident during their home clash with Newcastle United last month, as Magpies boss Eddie Howe was confronted by a fan on the touchline.

However, the Whites have now received a second misconduct accusation from the governing body. This charge is in relation to an incident that occurred in the 20th minute of their 2-2 draw against Brighton and Hove Albion at Elland Road on March 11.

The FA statement does not provide more information than that, but the club will have until next week to contest or respond.
