West Ham, Millwall charged
West Ham and Millwall face punishment by the English Football Association after being charged with several offences following the crowd violence that marred their League Cup clash in August.
The FA have issued four charges against West Ham and three against Millwall following an investigation into the serious disturbances in and around Upton Park on August 25.
A 44-year-old man was taken to hospital with stab wounds and several others were injured, while West Ham striker Carlton Cole and Millwall's Jason Price both suffered racist abuse during the match, which the Hammers won 3-1 after extra time.
A full range of sanctions are available including the clubs being made to play matches behind closed doors.
