- Beardsley left role as Newcastle Under-23 coach earlier in March
- 58-year-old has denied the allegations: ‘I’m not a racist,’ he said
Peter Beardsley has been charged by the Football Association with three counts of using racist language to players in his former job as Newcastle United’s Under-23 coach.
The former England international, who left Newcastle this month following a 14-month period of gardening leave, vehemently denies the claims and is expected to contest the charges. If so, his case will be heard by a three-person independent commission.
