At an independent Regulatory Commission hearing today, charges against Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson and assistant manager Carlos Queiroz were found not proved.

Ferguson and Queiroz were charged with improper conduct in relation to media comments made following Manchester United's FA Cup Sixth Round tie against Portsmouth in March.

Ferguson's charge concerned comments about referee Martin Atkinson and PGMO General Manager Keith Hackett, while Queiroz's charge related to comments about Martin Atkinson.
