Rochdale's assistant manager has been hit with a misconduct charge over his alleged behaviour at the end of their defeat to Carlisle United.

Nick Chadwick has been charged with "improper" language or behaviour in the last minute of the game.

Jim Bentley's assistant has until Friday to respond to the Football Association disciplinary charge.

The alleged behaviour happened as League Two's bottom side Rochdale headed towards a 1-0 defeat at the hands of the Blues last Saturday.

After John-Kymani Gordon gave United an early lead, Rochdale substitute Ian Henderson had a late equaliser disallowed for offside by referee Ross Joyce and his assistants.
