Ravel Morrison charged for alleged homophobic remark on Twitter Alleged homophobic tweets by Federico Macheda, on loan at Queens Park Rangers from Manchester United, and Nile Ranger, of Newcastle United, have also been brought to the attention of the FA, who must now decide whether to charge both players. Morrison, 19, moved to West Ham from Manchester United in the last transfer window but has yet to make his debut for the east London club. The FA had originally written to Morrison to ask him for his observations on the issue before deciding to charge him. Morrison has until 4pm on Thursday to respond to the charge. The FA sent all players a letter in January in which they issued clear guidelines on how social networking sites should be used in response to the rising number of complaints they were receiving. In the letter it was made clear to players that any comments which included "reference to a person's ethnic origin, colour, race, nationality, faith, gender, sexual orientation or disability may be considered aggravated and attract a higher disciplinary sanction."
