Jonathan Tiffoney was released by Stenhousemuir at the end of the seasonJonathan Tiffoney has been charged with "excessive misconduct" after being accused of goading an opponent about an attempt to take his own life. Albion Rovers' David Cox said he had quit football after the incident in a Scottish League 2 match in April. The 30-year-old defender faces a 3 June hearing after also being charged by the Scottish FA under rule 77. Stenhousemuir had asked the Scottish FA to investigate the "serious allegations" but, in a statement issued by his lawyers, Tiffoney said the claims were "simply untrue". "I would never attack another player's mental health or wellbeing and will fully cooperate with the Scottish FA investigation into this matter."
