Listen on

Episode notes

The Athletic's Adam Hurrey is joined by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker for a midweek edition of the Adjudication Panel. On the agenda: the spiralling language of Chelsea's meltdown, ChatGPT selects its Mesut Haaland Dicks, reducing Sam Allardyce's Leeds unveiling to its purest essence, how far into added time counts as "deep into added time" and what constitutes a title-race "twist".

Meanwhile, the panel try and pin down when football's "modern era" began and Charlie wrestles with a encyclopaedia-level definition of "The Barclays".
