Summary
The Athletic's Adam Hurrey is joined by David Walker and Nick Miller for the Adjudication Panel. On the agenda this week: Kevin Keegan hosting yet another obscure industry awards ceremony, an Irish variation on the new-fangled "draught excluder", a close inspection of Erling Haaland's signed hat-trick ball and John Terry gets the standard BeIn Sports treatment over in Qatar.
Meanwhile, the panel establish the criteria for a match to be labelled "men against boys" and whether differences in footballing class ever come in anything other than a "gulf".
