THE FA has confirmed that York City assistant coach Tony McMahon was charged with misconduct following his actions during the Minstermen’s 1-1 draw with Ebbsfleet on December 23.

City looked to be heading for victory after Lenell John-Lewis’ composed finish, but a controversial stoppage-time equaliser from Fleet goalkeeper Mark Cousins left fans stunned at the LNER Community Stadium.

McMahon was shown a red card by referee John Mulligan after the final whistle amid his frustrations.
