The 'Trial of the Century' is underway, as the Premier League and Manchester City will present their evidence in front of an independent panel behind closed doors.
It will last weeks and there will be no verdict for months and certainly no new information for the public, but it won't stop the back-to-back coverage from continuing.
Understandable, on one hand, because the result will have seismic ripples across English football whichever side is victorious.
But back at City, it's business as usual. They can't do anything except wait. It's in the hands of their lawyers. Plus, even if they wanted updates from inside the courtroom, it would only distract from a week where they simply don't have time to think about anything else.
