RYANAIR - Foreign Pilots

I think I recall some time back that Ryanair was using US aircrew, albeit on a contract basis. How did this work as far as right to live and work go? Were there not enough F/Os that could be upgraded? Also the licence issue - did/do these guys fly on validations?
Before I have to don a tin hat - no I am not an American trying to nick European jobs. Just trying to get a feel for the exact demand for crew at Ryanair and how the whole different packages for different people thing works.
