Summary
The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and Nick Miller bring you another instalment of the Adjudication Panel. This week's big questions include: Can a game be so bad that it gets both managers sacked? How late is it acceptable to say “this has got 0-0 written all over it”?

Meanwhile, the panel examine another classic slice of Weird Post-Match Pep Guardiola, explore the concept of the "midfield engine room" and one intrepid listener discovers the true, belly-dancing genius behind the Football Clichés podcast's theme tune
