00:00Well, it would be great if it didn't drag on and I think, obviously, it looks really bad for Manchester
00:05City.
00:06It really does. And bad for the game, you know, when they talk about these Premier League conspiracy theories,
00:13you just think to yourself, well, this is actually the last thing in the world that the Premier League would
00:18want.
00:19So, I'd love to see Man City now just own it and just say, OK, we got it wrong.
00:26But for the good of the game, you know, we'll accept it.
00:31We'll accept whatever punishment comes our way and we'll carry on.
00:35I think that would be a blessing and save their face a little bit at the moment.
00:40No, that doesn't look very likely, but it is damaging.
00:44It's damaging for clearly Manchester City.
00:46And I feel for their fans and I feel for their players.
00:50Particularly, you know, I've worked with one that won a league title.
00:53So, it would be very worrying for them.
00:58And ultimately, it's always the fans that suffer from these things, which is sad.
01:02Thank you, thank you.
