Carlisle United striker Shaun Miller has been charged for ‘Successful Deception of a Match Official’ following the penalty decision in Tuesday’s game against Wycombe Wanderers, after being adjudged to have been fouled by defender Dan Scarr.
The charge reads as follows:
"Carlisle United player Shaun Miller has been charged for ‘Successful Deception of a Match Official’.
It is alleged he committed a clear act of simulation which led to a penalty being awarded in the 35th minute of the game against Wycombe Wanderers on 17 October 2017. He has until 6pm on 19 October 2017 to respond.
"Incidents which suggest a match official has been deceived by an act of simulation are referred to a panel consisting of one ex-match official, one ex-manager and one ex-player.
"Each panel member will be asked to review all available video footage independently of one another to determine whether they consider it was an offence of ‘Successful Deception of a Match Official’.
"Only in circumstances where the panel are unanimous would The FA issue a charge."
Carlisle United are currently reviewing the evidence pending a decision on an appeal.
