An Officer could make a mistake! If you feel they have charged you improperly, then contact them directly and explain the error. They can withdraw the charge.
If that does not work then approach the Crown Prosecutor with your argument. Reducing their load on game day will be welcomed.

Look up the differences between Strict and Absolute Liability offences. Google Lawyer will help.
Best of luck.
