The Football Association charged Fergie over his comments regarding referee Alan Wiley’s fitness, following the 2-2 draw with Sunderland at Old Trafford on 3rd October.
Fergie has later issued a personal apology to Wiley for his comments.
A statement on the FA’s official website read: “Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has been charged with improper conduct.
“The charge relates to media comments made by Ferguson about referee Alan Wiley following United’s match against Sunderland at Old Trafford on 3 October.”
