Paul Robinson charged by FA after James Chesters clash


Birmingham defender Paul Robinson has been charged with violent conduct by the Football Association.

The charge relates to an off-the-ball incident during the derby game against Aston Villa on Sunday in which Robinson clashed with James Chester in the immediate aftermath of Gabby Agbonlahor's winning goal.

The Birmingham captain appeared to trip and then kick Chester, sending the Villa defender to the floor in an incident missed by the match officials at the time, but the FA have now acted after studying video footage.
