Sacked Goole AFC captain Karl Colley has been charged by the FA with "improper conduct" for confronting a fan on Saturday.

The 30-year-old went up to the stands to confront a Coalville Town supporter on three separate occasions while he was on his way out of the pitch after being sent off.

"Karl Colley has been charged for improper conduct in relation to his behaviour in or around the 54th minute of the match between Goole and Coalville Town on January 25, 2014," read a statement on the FA's official website.

"The incident, which followed the former Goole player's dismissal during the game, fell outside the jurisdiction of the match officials. Colley has until February 5, 2014 to respond to the charge."

Colley was sacked by Goole straight after the match for his misconduct.
