Wolves chairman Steve Morgan has been charged by the FA after confronting the referee at the end of the game against AFC Bournemouth.
It is alleged that his language and/or behaviour after the end of the fixture was abusive and/or insulting and/or improper.
Wolves lost 2-1 at home to to Bournemouth on Saturday and as the teams left the pitch Morgan confronted referee Mike Jones, who had sent off two Wolves players.
Jones was escorted off the pitch at the end of the game.
While the club confirmed it will be appealing against both red cards, Morgan acknowledged that he was in the wrong and said he would like to "apologise personally to Mike Jones".
“I was extremely angry and frustrated at many of his refereeing decisions, and I still am," Morgan told the Wanderers' website.
“However, I should not have gone pitch side to vent my frustrations.”
He has until 6pm on December 11 to respond to the charge.
