But the problem is that Ray was unaware (the Liverpool FA secretary had not informed him - nor had the club he was playing for) so it is not technically Rays fault.
The club on the other hand cannot be held to blame for something they were unaware of, i.e. Ray being signed from Liverpool - not a local side in the Liverpool FA.
Apparently (according to Radio Lancs and Rob Heys in interview, the FA and FL both have some sympathy with the club, but the only penalty can now be financial).
