The FA today charged Everton with allegedly failing to control their players in a mass confrontation during a Premiership match at Craven Cottage last month.

Fulham were charged yesterday with the same offence and have vowed to mount a vigorous defence.

Almost all 22 players became involved in a melee following red cards for David Weir and Luis Boa Morte in the December 8th clash.
