first stage. the chair of the panel, the final say rest with him. it then goes to an adjudicatory panel. city could appeal and may even go to the court of arbitration for sport. they haveissued court of arbitration for sport. they have issued a strong statement today saying that they are fully cooperating with the investigation, and that they have provided evidence showing that they are innocent, and they have also said in the statement that they are extremely concerned that they are extremely concerned that these reports suggest perhaps that these reports suggest perhaps that there have been leaks, and that there are individuals perhaps trying to undermine the reputation and commercial interests of the club will stop so this is a serious matter for manchester city, but i think it still has a long way to run as well. you can expect developments in that this week. bolton wanderers‘ struggles extend
6:36 pm
far beyond the pitch with news the club are opening a food bank to help staff who've not been paid their wages. relegated from the championship, the club face an uncertain future, and more pressingly so do the non playing staff who haven't been paid since april. ian haslam is there. there is no doubt that staff are in a very difficult position, not having been paid for a number of weeks, and as a consequence, we have had to look at how we can support them in different ways through the work of the community trust and the support of many others within bolton. i guess that putting the emotions aside the important thing is to try and find practical support and help in the circumstances. the reality is that people can take away some food to feed their family with an evenings over the week, they can ta ke an evenings over the week, they can take away nappies for their children, whatever their needs might be. then at least, it frees up the little money that they might have to
6:37 pm
go on essential bills or other essential items they require. they we re essential items they require. they were living their lives hoping and believing they would be paid on time. and as many people do, they live to their means. as a consequence, when that has gone, and that source has dried up, it can be a real problem going forward. desperate situation for bolton wanderers and everyone involved in the club. from the championship to the premier league, west brom will need to overturn a two one first leg deficit at home to aston villa in tonight's championship play off semi final second leg. if they're to keep their hopes of an immediate return to the top flight alive. dan pallett joins us. we've witnessed some remarkable footballing feats, will the baggies be hoping to channel that later? here the mic tonight, we have the second instalment of the all west midlands championship play—off semifinal between west bromwich

6:39 pm
what these clubs are after this evening. england's cricketers are playing their third one—day international against pakistan at bristol. eoin morgan's men are 1—0 up in the series in what's really a warm—up for the forthcoming world cup in this country. no jos buttler orjofra archer today, they're being rested so there was a chance for some others in the squad to show what they can do as ben croucher reports. a home world cup on home soil with the home team then with a chance of winning it. two early wickets for chris woakes merely heightened the new—found optimism around the english team. 0ptimism over their batting line—up, but the bowlers found trouble afoot. just as pakistan got going, they found trouble afoot. at the other end, imam ul—haq was using his hands to fully fa ct imam ul—haq was using his hands to fully fact that back full effect.
6:40 pm
supported by asif ali, the touring side fell to 358 in their 50 overs. time for that batting line—up to fire, a bit like that. jason roy quickly into the swing of things. it helps when you get freebies from the fielders, also might. with that big total to chase, they still need to show some bulldog spirit to win. england just started their innings — they need 359 to win they're 1 without loss. a quick look at some of the day's other stories. 2017 giro champion, dutchman tom dumoulin, fell heavily in today's fourth stage and lost four minutes as a result. britain's simon yates was involved in another minor crash but remains second. 23—time grand slam champion serena williams has pulled out of the italian open with a knee injury but says she still hopes to
6:41 pm
play at the french open next month. and love it or hate it, australia's nick kyrigos was back to his old tricks, beating danil medvedev reaching the second round of the italian 0pen. he produced an underarm serve on the first point of the match. we've been looking ahead to the cricket world cup, which forms part ofa cricket world cup, which forms part of a packed summer of sport, with the netball world cup starting in july. news today of one notable absentee. beth cobden suffered another serious knee injuryjust three matches into her return after ten months on the sidelines. she looked set to be a guaranteed pick in tracey neville's squad. and as emily croydon explains, she's one of several injury concerns before the full squad's announced on the 23rd may. it isa it is a devastating situation for beth, having spent ten months out of the sport, she had fought her way back into the england reckoning, only to have the opportunity to play
6:42 pm
in herfirst world cup, and a home one at that, snatched away with exactly the same injury. for england it isa exactly the same injury. for england it is a big blow. she was tracey neville's first choice wing defence at the commonwealth games last year, where the roses won that historic gold. it was highly likely that she was going to be in that squad, despite missing the series through the autumn and winter with england, she was very much in the fold. she was attending england counts, and when she was back in action with the adelaide thunderbirds recently, tracey neville went to watch her in australia. unfortunately, she sustained this injury in only her third match back in action. she had looked completely back to her best and didn'tappearto looked completely back to her best and didn't appear to have her movement hampered. last year's injury appeared to have cleared up, but unfortunately, it is her left knee again. where does this leave england? a lot of pressure coming into a home world cup, so where does this leave the squad? four tracey
6:43 pm
neville, a real headache. if she was co mforta ble neville, a real headache. if she was comfortable with her squad previously, she will have quite a few sleepless nights this week. that said, she has options at wing defence. leila guscott is available and can play in that position. she didn't play in that position because of work commitments. she is also a doctor. she was featured in the quad series in january and doctor. she was featured in the quad series injanuary and is doing well, s0 series injanuary and is doing well, so she is an option. she has jade clark, the most capped english player ever. she can play wing defence also might. there are options but there are also other injury questions on other members of the squad. still plenty to come on the squad. still plenty to come on the programme. why lionel messi's new camp will welcome wigan —— new camp stadium still to come on sportsday: playing at spain's nou camp — why

6:45 pm
he says he will run horses in the maroon colours of his stud for the next five years or so, but the amount of money he puts into the sport, particularly in ireland, this has been quite a blow, really, so a big shock in the horse racing industry today. what will happen? you say that things will wind down, but what happens to the horses? tiger role, for example, what about them? it could possibly go for an unprecedented third win in the grand national next year. it is fine, so he should still run in those same colours with the same jockey, davy russell, next april, and it would be amazing if they won, so they will carry on as normal. amazing if they won, so they will carry on as normal. what is behind all this? michael 0'leary, as people know, runs the successful ryanair business. in that we can, in the irish times rich list, he is now
