BBC Federico Macheda and Nile Ranger charged by FA for homophobic Tweets Manchester United's Federico Macheda, Newcastle United's Nile Ranger and Walsall's Manny Smith have all been charged by the Football Association for alleged homophobic comments on Twitter. The players are alleged to have acted in a way which was improper and/or brought the game into disrepute. Each has until 1600 GMT on Wednesday 29 February to respond to the charges. West Ham's Ravel Morrison and ex-Leicester player Michael Ball have recently been fined for similar cases. Morrison was fined £7,000 by the FA in February after he admitted a charge of using abusive and/or insulting words on Twitter, including a reference to a person's sexual orientation. Ball, who also played for England, Manchester City and Everton, was fined £6,000 for tweeting about Coronation Street actor Anthony Cotton. The FA launched a new six-year inclusion and anti-homophobia plan last Monday called 'Opening Doors and Joining In' where it outlined its aims to rid the game of prejudice. Macheda, 20, is currently on loan at QPR, having joined the west London club in January. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17178936

Not sure if this is a QPR matter or a Man Ut matter. I don't see anything on either site. (But the Man U site is so massive, it could be there somewhere. (Man Ut site can be read in a variety of languages, which I didn't know)

Yet still more ‘fag’ soccer tweets. The Football Association takes more action. Feb 29th, 2012 by Cyd Zeigler jr.. outsports.com/jocktalkblog/2012/02/29/yet-still-more-fag-soccer-tweets-the-football-association-takes-more-action/Two more players have been brought up on charges by the Football Association for sending out homophobic tweets on Twitter. Are these guys ever going to learn? Federico Macheda (right) is a hot little number who is with Queens Park Rangers, on loan from Manchester United. We couldn’t find his original anti-gay tweet (he probably deleted it…or it’s in Italian), but we did find his “wasn’t me” non-apology: Next on the list is Nile Ranger, a striker for Newcastle United who took to Twitter to call teammate Andy Mogwo a f*****: outsports.com/jocktalkblog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/nile_ranger_tweet_430.gif[/img]Both of these players have been brought up on charges by the Football Association. The only thing worse than their casual homophobia is their stupidity. How can you, as a public figure, still be tweeting these words? Crazy.

Apparently he put on his CV....his current position was
'Goal scorer'.

No word re Macheda....But the other two fined Guardian/PA Nile Ranger and Manny Smith fined over homophobic comments on Twitter • Newcastle's Ranger fined £6,000 – Walsall's Smith £1,200 • Federico Macheda also charged but no details confirmed Newcastle United's Nile Ranger and Walsall's Manny Smith have been fined £6,000 and £1,200 respectively and warned as to their future conduct after admitting making homophobic comments on Twitter. The pair were charged by the Football Association on Monday along with the Manchester United striker Federico Macheda. All three were accused of acting in a way which was "improper and/or brought the game into disrepute", including "a reference to a person's or persons' sexual orientation". An FA statement on Thursday read: "Newcastle United's Nile Ranger and Walsall's Manny Smith have been fined £6,000 and £1,200 respectively and both warned as to their future conduct after each admitting a charge of using abusive and/or insulting words including a reference to a person's sexual orientation. "The charges relate to Twitter comments and both players requested a paper hearing." No details of the case involving Macheda, currently on loan at QPR, were confirmed. The West Ham United midfielder Ravel Morrison was last week fined £7,000 by the FA in response to a homophobic remark made on Twitter. Morrison, who joined the club from Manchester United at the end of January for an undisclosed fee, is reported to have made the comment in response to another Twitter user. The 19-year-old was also warned as to his future conduct by the FA. www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/mar/01/nile-ranger-manny-smith-fined-twitter
