Summary

The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and Nick Miller form this week's Adjudication Panel. On the agenda this time: the Spanish media rattled by an unexpected English voice, the number of departing players needed for a "fire sale" or a "clearout", a spectacular hat-trick of curious penalty punditry, the most pantomime crowd noise of the season, and why Schalke should adopt the Birds of a Feather theme tune as their pre-match anthem.Meanwhile, the panel semi-successfully attempt to establish The Official Scale of Terminology for the Ball Hitting or Missing the Woodwork.
