Summary
The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, David Walker and Nick Miller gather for a jam-packed Adjudication Panel. On this week's agenda: the Highbury Screamer lives on, the precise minimum distance for a shot to be met with "...and why not?" from a commentator, yet another player-ratings scandal and Graham Potter taking on his Brighton boo boys.
Meanwhile, the panel try and nail down the earliest date that careless backpasses can be described as "an early Christmas present".
