Sherwood and the rest of the panel discussed City’s January transfer dealing as they looked ahead to Saturday’s game with Chelsea at the Etihad.
Despite a three-man panel hearing closing arguments in December, it will still be months before a verdict is released.
What will happen to Man City?
MAN CITY began the season as favourites to win the Premier League title yet again – but there is one elephant in the room that threatens to put the skids under the Etihad giants.
Sunsport’s MARTIN LIPTON discusses what the next few months could hold with Head of Sport SHAUN CUSTIS….
Custis: So the big question – will there be a resolution this season?
Lipton: Yes…. probably! It will take at least a month to go through the evidence. So I suspect around March, April time, we will get a result. But that’s where it starts to get tricky.
Custis: Why is that?
Lipton: If the result is in City’s favour, that’s the end of the matter. They will be cleared. They will have no punishment to face.
But if City are found guilty, these will be the heaviest penalties ever imposed by the Premier League.
I suspect if they are found guilty, they will be expelled from the league or given a massive points deduction and a huge fine so that they’re not in the Premier League next season.

MARTY KAVANAGH’S 12th point of the day salvaged a draw for CARLOW against OFFALY at O’Connor Park.
The hosts’ failure to threaten the visitors’ goal at any stage meant they struggled to turn their supremacy into a commanding lead.
Sliotars on the grass
The Division 1B clash finished 0-19 to 1-16 in Tullamore, with Carlow getting the only goal through James Doyle with five minutes played.
Offaly took control in the second quarter and by half-time they led by 0-13 to 1-7, with centre-forward Dan Bourke and full-forward Charlie Mitchell scoring 0-3 each in that 35 minutes.
However, they continued to concede handy frees to Kavanagh, who struggled with his accuracy in the opening half but relentlessly punished every foul after half-time.
Ciarán Whelan and Fiachra Fitzpatrick got the better of things at midfield to help Carlow establish a platform.
And while Offaly’s defence was dominant in open play, they left the door open with a couple of glaring errors up front and led by just two, 0-19 to 1-14, going into stoppage time.
Kavanagh got two chances, one from 60 metres out and one from just inside his own 65 with the last puck, and the St Mullin’s man nailed both.
In Division 2, there were tight games all round.
First-half goals from Daithí Sands and Eoin Pucci helped DOWN to a 2-19 to 0-22 win over KILDARE in Ballycran.
A miserable opening 35 minutes for the Lilywhites brought a missed penalty and ten wides.
Yet they came from seven behind to lead by one with five minutes to play, only for the Ulstermen to prevail.
DONEGAL almost pulled off a shock against MEATH in Trim but a penalty goal from keeper Luke White and a series of fine frees from Gerry Gilmore were not quite enough.
Goals from Cian Rogers and Jack Regan helped Meath to a narrow 2-12 to 1-14 victory.
In Omagh, DERRY won 1-13 to 0-14 despite Aidy Kelly’s 0-11 haul for TYRONE.

A LOVE Island alum was left fuming after his designer luggage with “everything important in it” was swiped from a train.
The ITV2 star took to Instagram to rant about the shock crime, which came on a journey towards Milton Keynes, claiming it took a “split second” for his belongings to be stolen.

Luckily music star Wes Nelson had taken his MacBook laptop from his bag before the thief struck.
The Staffordshire-born singer, 26, appeared in the fourth Love Island season back in 2018.
He used his platform to build his music career and released debut single Say Nothing five years ago.
His new tracks – as yet not heard by fans – have remained in tact amid the ordeal.
Wes posted an image of his dark train table onto social media with the stark words: “My LV [Louis Vuitton] bag was just stolen on the train just as we stopped at Milton Keynes.
“Had everything important in it.
“I’m lucky I took my MacBook out before the journey. All my music would have been GONE.
“Anyway just a heads up, it took a split second to look away and that s**t was gone.”
He finished off his understandably angry message with the words: “Rats everywhere.”
In his second Instagram slide, Wes posted an image showing his swanky luggage in the overhead rack.
Yet the Nice To Meet Ya hitmaker scrawled a green arrow towards the bag as he attempted to figure out how the mishap happened.
Wes told fans: “Just clocked in this pic I sent earlier.
“The bag has been pulled waaaay back to the seat behind me, the guy must have been slowly sliding it backwards whenever I looked down.
instagramWes then uploaded an image of his bag moved on the overhead rack and told how it had been pulled ‘way back’[/caption]

IAN WRIGHT has joined the long-list of former professionals and pundits to be left reeling by the decision to send off Arsenal youngster Myles Lewis-Skelly on Saturday.
Ian Wright has slammed Michael Oliver’s decision to send of Myles Lewis-Skelly against WolvesInstagram @wrightyofficialRexReferee Micheal Oliver showed a red to Lewis-Skelly in the first half of Arsenal’s 1-0 win[/caption]

PAThe decision was checked and not overturned by VAR[/caption]
GettyIt is Arsenal’s fourth red card of the season[/caption]
Lewis-Skelly was sent for an early shower after tripping Wolves defender Matt Doherty nearly 90 yards away from the Arsenal goal.
The cynical challenge left most fans expecting a yellow card, but the Hale End graduate was shown red by referee Michael Oliver instead.
And now Gunners icon Ian Wright has weighed in on the incident, claiming that it’s “never a red”.
In a video posted on social media by the former Premier Legue bagsman, he fumed: “It’s a joke!
“Anyone that has ever played the game, and I’m not even talking Premier League, I’m talking five-a-side, Sunday league, knows that it’s never a red.
“Yellow card, nobody says a word. Time and time again, this level of refereeing [and] the decisions in the Premier League… the inconsistency, the excuses, the apologies.
“All of them are just the centre of attention for me. We can’t criticise too hard because, where are the refs going to come from? Where are we going to get them?
An official has to decide whether the challenge was careless or reckless — careless is a free-kick only, reckless is a yellow card — or worthy of a red card.
When a player lunges at an opponent with one or two feet from the front, the side or from the back which endangers the player’s safety with excess force or/and brutality, it must be sanctioned with a red.
I saw it as a reckless challenge worthy of a yellow, not a red.
So why did Darren not recommend a review? Once the red card was shown, the VAR should have intervened.
If Michael had the opportunity to view the challenge again, I’m sure he would have changed his mind, cancelled the red card and issued a yellow.
As for Arsenal fans’ views that Michael is biased against them, I’m not buying into that. You can never question the integrity of a match official and Michael is one of our best referees.
Officials cannot get everything right and that is why we have VAR to help. So questions have to be asked of Darren.
With the second yellow for Joao Gomes after catching Jurrien Timber on the ankle, you could argue that was a worse challenge than the Lewis-Skelly one.

“But I’m sorry, this is the highest level of football and we do not have the highest level of referees. When will the Premier League bring the best refs into the so called ‘best league in the world’?
“Because at the moment, with this level of refereeing, we’re nowhere near it. Nowhere near it.”
Arteta told reporters that he hopes that an appeal won’t even be necessary and that the PGMOL will overturn the decision themselves as they did with Bruno Fernandes’ red card against Tottenham earlier in the season.
He said: “It is that clear that I leave it to you guys. I am absolutely fuming but I leave it with you – because it is that obvious. I don’t think my words are going to help.
“I think it is that obvious that we don’t need any comments today and hopefully the right thing will happen after today.
“Hopefully we don’t need to (appeal) and, if we have [to], it happened and it’s a really good precedent what happened with Bruno this season as well.
“So, hopefully, okay we were in a position we shouldn’t be in. At least, let’s be in a position that we should be in for the next few weeks and allow that player to continue to do his job.”
Match of the Day host Mark Chapman claimed the red card was “baffling and nonsensical from supposedly one of our best referees”.
While BBC Five Live pundit Pat Nevin said labelling such a challenge serious foul play was setting “a bar so low even a limbo dancing snake couldn’t get under it”.
And even ex-Tottenham star Jamie O’Hara said: “I’m all for Arsenal having a beast but that is never ever a red card, one of the worst decisions I’ve ever seen. Jheez lol”.
It read: “The referee’s call of a red card for Lewis-Skelly was checked and confirmed by VAR, who deemed his challenge to have been serious foul play.”

Arsenal player ratings: David Raya saves all three-points for Arsenal but Trossard’s woeful deliveries an issue again
ARSENAL finally won a match with ten-men after Myles Lewis-Skelly was controversially sent off.
It was the Gunners’ fourth sending off this season and they had not won any of their matches without 11 players this term.
Here is how SunSport rated the players’ performances.
DAVID RAYA – 8/10
Very little to do until the 63rd minute when he brilliantly tipped a deflected Matheus Cunha effort wide. He then stopped Rayan Ait-Nouri in a one-on-one in the 84th minute.
MYLES LEWIS-SKELLY – 6
Was having another fine game before being the victim of one of most ludicrous red cards in Prem history. His cynical trip was worthy of a yellow and nothing more.
WILLIAM SALIBA – 7
Arsenal just look so solid with him in this backline. A welcome return from a minor hamstring injury. Kept Cunha at bay.
GABRIEL – 7
Led from the front and put his body on the line. Constantly headed away from danger.
JURRIEN TIMBER – 6
Hit with some nasty challenges that required treatment – including one that had Joao Gomes sent off – but carried on playing and was resolute.
DECLAN RICE – 7
More of a goal threat than in recent weeks and stood up when Arsenal needed him.
THOMAS PARTEY – 7
Steady Eddie for most parts back in his favoured midfield position after spells at right-back this season. Displayed his importance to this side once more.
ETHAN NWANERI – 6
Unfortunately made way at half-time as a sacrificial lamb following Lewis-Skelly’s sending off. Was a lively, creative spark in the first-half.
LEANDRO TROSSARD – 5
In the absence of Bukayo Saka, the Belgian is on corner-taking duty, but his deliveries were woeful. A quiet afternoon that sums up why he is in and out of the team currently.
GABRIEL MARTINELLI – 6
Was lacking that clinical edge in the first half, but came up with the cross after the break that led to Arsenal’s vital opener.
KAI HAVERTZ – 7
Missed two glorious first half chances with his head and another in the second half, but worked tirelessly on his own – especially with Arsenal down to ten.
SUBS:
RICCARDO CALAFIORI (NWANERI, 45) – 8
The sort of goal that keeps title dreams alive. Added real height and danger aerially, as well as a sweet volley from a tough angle.
