Tin pot cup anyway, we'll concentrate on the league now, with a view of champions league in about 5 or 6 years. :)
 
Disappointing but inevitable im afraid.

Hopefully the club and Ray have learned a BIG lesson.
 
The mind really does boggle, what a total carve up, things like this shouldn't happen at a professional football club, but its not the first time its happened at Stanley is it, but will it be the last, I'm not holding my breathe:eek::(
 
It's to be hoped so. The FA won't be pleased they have had to spend some time gathering evidence to find out somebody didn't tell the truth :eek:

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).
 
Just a little frustrated as I do feel we could have done something in this cup. Not to be though so roll on saturday.
