FLASHPOINT ... Patrice Evra clashes with Chelsea staff back in April

The Manchester United defender was involved in an altercation with Chelsea groundstaff after the April 26 clash.

He now faces an FA ban or could be fined if found guilty.

Evra, Paul Scholes, John O'Shea, Gerard Pique and Gary Neville were taking part in a warm-down session on the pitch when they were asked to move.

The row erupted when the players refused to come off the pitch.

Chelsea had earlier beaten Manchester United 2-1 to go level on points at the top of the Premier League.

Blues groundsman Sam Bethell was also charged with improper conduct, while Uniteds Rio Ferdinand has been reminded of his responsibilities to the game.

Bethell has also been accused of using abusive language aggravated by reference to nationality/race.
