Hull City manager Phil Brown is to face an FA panel to face a charge of improper conduct following Cityâs FA Cup quarter-final defeat at Arsenal last season
The Tigers fell to an offside winner from William Gallas after Robin Van Persie had cancelled out Nick Barmby’s opener.
The match became known as ‘spitgate’ following Brown’s allegations that Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas had spat at Tigers assistant boss Brian Horton in the tunnel afterwards.
However, the Arsenal man was found to have no case to answer.

How can they really ban him come on if you was a real supporter you would understand the preasures and fighting to keep our team up unlike some of these troubled fans who come looking for the trouble at the games played at the KC!! they are the animals influenced under alchol!! Phil Brown is there for his team”

“Trying to get a player from another club banned by making up unfounded charges is a dirty trick and he should be fined and banned for that act alone.”

“phil brown has done a good job at city,the most sucessfull manager in the clubs history,but phil please next season engage your brain in to gear a bit more,before opening your mouth,its getting you into trouble,take a few lessons from paul duffen,who is an excellent speaker and could sell sand to the arabs,and mr browns theres nothing wrong with passion for our club,just a little more self control,im sure you have learned many things in your first season in the prem.”
