Casper charged with missle throwing
Casper the friendly goalie is in trouble, for allegedly throwing a missile at Swindon at the start of the month.
An FA statement reads “Leeds United goalkeeper Casper Ankergren has been charged with improper conduct. It is alleged that Ankergren threw a missile at Swindon Town supporters at the end of a game at the County Ground on 1 March. He has until 1 April to respond to the charge."
The outcome could be that Casper could be suspended for a couple of games either before or during the play-offs. Just what we need.
