The Football Association has charged QPR with failing to control their players during the 2-2 draw with Manchester City.
The charge refers to an incident in the eighth minute of the game at Loftus Road where it is alleged the club failed to ensure its players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion following Charlie Austin’s second disallowed 'goal' in a matter of seconds.
Rangers’ players were incensed when referee Mike Riley denied striker Austin two goals in the eighth minute - the first for offside and the second for an infringement by City goalkeeper Joe Hart.
A statement on the FA website read: “Queens Park Rangers have been charged by the FA following their game against Manchester City on 8 November 2014.”
“The club has until 6pm on 17 November 2014 to respond to the charge.”
Austin did eventually score a goal that counted in the 21st minute to put QPR ahead but two Sergio Aguero goals sandwiched an own goal from Martin Demichelis as the spoils were shared.
