bookable offences
In particular, the charge relates to the behaviour of the Latics players toward referee Steve Bennett on two separate occasions in the clash at St James' Park.
Bennett sent off Wigan's Kevin Kilbane for two bookable offences early in the second half, but the FA have not confirmed whether the reaction of Chris Hutchings' players to that decision is one of the incidents under investigation.
The club have until 19th September to respond to the charge.
