Unexpected Sutton, diags on MOTD & the “good time to play them” threshold

Adam Hurrey is joined on the Adjudication Panel by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker. On the agenda: Cole Palmer's perfect Panenka, the latest breach of Match of the Day protocol, the minor media obsession with getting managers to admit their team is in the title race, obscure mid-90s Spurs midfielders in Netflix comedies and the dream scenario for fans ridiculing the opposition goalkeeper's goal kicks. Meanwhile, the panel weigh up the Club World Cup’s group of death and pick apart the “good time to play them” theory.
