Summary

The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker form the Adjudication Panel once again. On the agenda this week: more unique Serie A vocals, snooker's answer to mid-1990s Galatasaray, a £250 scale model of Steve McManaman (with four sets of "iconic" detachable hands), Andy Townsend reviews the Foo Fighters and one listener launches a spirited defence of long-distance runners making up the numbers at 5-a-side

Meanwhile, the panel run through football's proverbial trade unions, from the perennially paranoid Goalkeepers' Union to the surely unworkable Midfielders' Union.
