Footballer facing FA charge over Harry Arter comments
Semi-professional footballer Alfie Barker has been charged by the Football Association in relation to offensive messages sent to Bournemouth's Harry Arter about his stillborn daughter.
The tweets from an account in the name of Barker were sent to Arter after Bournemouth conceded a three-goal lead to draw 3-3 with Arsenal on January 3.
