I can’t see them doing it in the international break because it’ll mean 2 whole weeks with nothing to take it out of the news cycle.
If the result is good for City, the PL won’t want to release it and get 12 days of the football media’s full attention.
And if it’s bad for City and they have any say in the release date they won’t want 12 days of focus on how we’re the worst thing ever to happen to football.
The cynic in me says they’ll release it on a Friday at 4pm (probably with a Friday night game) and let a full slate of fixtures immediately take the attention of every football journalist in the country.
