Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips has been charged with violent conduct by the Football Association.

The charge relates to an incident involving Rory Delap in the first half of Man City's 1-0 defeat against Stoke on Saturday.

No action was taken at the time as referee Martin Atkinson did not see what happened, but video footage has now been studied.

Atkinson has informed the FA that he would have sent Wright-Phillips off if he had seen the incident.

Delap was shown a red card later in the first half for a foul on Wright-Phillips but Stoke emerged 1-0 winners thanks to James Beattie's header on 45 minutes.

Wright-Phillips has until 6pm on Thursday to admit or deny the charge, while a Regulatory Commission will hear the case on Friday.

A fine is nothing to him, but then again, it didn't deserve a ban, especially if Bosingwa's goes unpunished. Two wrongs don't make a right but you can understand SWP retaliating.

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Yeah he has changed, he's got good again. The good thing about Quaresma is Chelsea can't make him shit, as he comes with everybody knowing he's a failure already.

It's said that Chelsea ruin players, well players ruin themselves a lot of the time. Big fish small pond mentalities - Scott Parker for example.

"Can someone please tell me why so much is being made of Wright phillips kick out by the press and the english F.A. when Ronaldo has done the same thing not once but three times and well documented on skysports. You can't punish players in middle table teams and not punish the top teams the same, seems very wrong to me but doesn't surprise me a Manure player gettin away with murder as usual"

You are right but the ref on each occassion with ronaldo has said that he saw the incident, or he didn't but would only have booked him. The problem swp has got is that the ref has said he didn't see it and would have sent swp off if he had, not sure why you've turned this into a pop at united and ronaldo again tho

Shaun Wright-Phillips is free to play in Manchester City's game against Middlesbrough on Saturday after the club were given more time to provide evidence against a Football Association charge.

The City winger has been charged with violent conduct by the FA following an incident in last week's 1-0 defeat at Stoke City.

Wright-Phillips appeared to kick out at Rory Delap and referee Martin Atkinson has said he would have sent the player off if he had seen the incident.

The FA had given Wright-Phillips until 6pm on Thursday to respond to the charge, but City have been granted more time to put their case together.

The evidence must now be submitted by 6pm on Friday, with the case to be heard on Monday at 11am, meaning Wright-Phillips can line up against Boro on Saturday.

Disappointed

If Wright-Phillips is ultimately found guilty he faces a three-match ban, although City boss Mark Hughes believes such a punishment would be unfair.

Hughes said of the FA charge: "We are disappointed.

"By the letter of the law, Shaun retaliated. But he had twice been kicked from behind. I don't think what Shaun did in response was violent conduct.

"It was a human reaction and I feel a three-game ban would be unfair."
