00:00 John, obviously you've had a bit of time to digest everything.

00:02 So what is your reaction to the Independent Commission imposing that 10-point deduction on your team?

00:07 I think like everyone, well, certainly everyone in these parts was shocked.

00:13 And seemingly the wave of noise after that seemed like most people in football, around football, are shocked.

00:20 The enormity of it, 'disproportionate' is a word that's been used by the club.

00:25 And, you know, so obviously we're going to feel a bit aggrieved by that.

00:29 On the other hand, it just doesn't change the focus.

00:32 The focus since I got here has been sorting things out on the pitch, getting the team to win,

00:37 getting the team to feel different, the performances to be different.

00:42 And we were obviously on the right lines for that and delivering strong performances, I felt.

00:48 And then this has just give us a push backwards to then come forwards again.

00:52 You know, the job hasn't changed for me.

00:54 It's just made it more difficult in the current circumstances until the appeal, of course.

00:59 I don't know every inch of what went on in the past.

01:01 I don't know every inch of the commission and why they've come out what they've come out with.

01:04 But I certainly believe in what, you know, the club put forward.

01:08 The fact that it's disproportionate feels like it's unjust.

01:11 And I think there's plenty of voices out there who feel the same.

01:14 That said, what's done is done for now, obviously.

01:18 Appeal pending.

01:19 So therefore we have to get on with it.

01:21 And that's just the simple facts of it.
