Liverpool £200k fine for an ineligible player (probably equivalent of a week's wage for most of their squad), Grays...denied a lifeline by progressing through the early stages of the FA Cup (probably a week's cash flow!!!)
Grays Athletic frustrated as Liverpool are only handed fine for fielding ineligible player in Carabao Cup days after non-league club is expelled from FA Cup

Different governing bodies. Another club (can’t remember which) got the same sanction recently.

Maybe so...it shows the rule-makers in either camp have little perspective of what constitutes a relative punishment. A little like a very wealthy person has little problem parking on double-yellows 3x a day. Whereas someone on low income fears doing so as a significant proportion of their income is taken away.

200k would also probably cripple Grays, if they had the option they'd more than likely take the boot.

And Arsenal pay Ozil £350k per week to sit on the bench! A £200k fine is laughable really, but it is the same as wealthy people getting a parking ticket...they don't give a shit if it makes their life easier. Saves them 5mins walk from & to a car park. In that 5mins they have probably made 10x the amount of the parking fine. So, what kind of deterrent is it???

Perverse is probably a more apt word.
