Welcome back to The Buff Podcast in a week where we have all been revelling in a five-star display at Exeter City. Bolton Wanderers found their ruthless side at St James Park, now can they stay sharp for the visit of Wycombe to the Toughsheet this weekend - and possibly a last chance to get back into the automatic promotion race. Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are (mostly) back to discuss the week's headlines from The Bolton News, including a pledge from January signing Johnny Kenny, the return of Aaron Morley and a mysterious injury to Corey Blackett-Taylor. We read out your emails, bring you another story of "Why I'm a Wanderer" and make our predictions for the weekend.

It has been a week where we could wallow in Wanderers' Premier League past glories, and then remember there's a long trip to Exeter City to come this weekend. Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back to discuss the week's headlines from The Bolton News, including a bittersweet 2-2 draw with Ian Evatt's Blackpool and the revelation that Josh Sheehan has signed a new contract at the Toughsheet. The lads discuss the promotion picture, whether it really is too late for the Whites to catch Lincoln and Cardiff, and whether third place is success or failure this season. As ever we read out your emails, your stories of how you became a Bolton Wanderers fan, and make some predictions for the long trip to St James Park.

Two draws, ground lost on the top two, and the return of former boss Ian Evatt... There are no shortage of talking points for Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt on this week's Buff Podcast. We look ahead to this weekend's game against Blackpool and discuss that the last 12 months has done for Ian Evatt's legacy, what sort of reception he can expect, and if Bolton can get back on track with a win. Results at Lincoln and Reading were short of what the Whites needed to keep track with Lincoln and Cardiff but the standard of the performance suggests all is not lost. The boys zoom out and look at what the bigger picture could look like IF the play-offs are now the only route left to the Championship. Elsewhere, it's the premiere of Sky Sports' Big Sam documentary. We bring you an exclusive teaser trailer and talk about whether it's time to have a lasting tribute to him at the stadium. And as ever we read out a load of your emails, including where you listen to The Buff, and why you became a Wanderer! It's the biggest, it's the best, it's The Buff!

Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back with another show packed with Bolton Wanderers headlines, gossip and chatter. Of course, the weekend's big game against Lincoln City is the main topic of conversation. Can it really be a 'must-win' match with 13 more to follow?

Welcome back to The Buff - and before anyone starts booing, hear us out... Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back for another podcast packed with news, gossip, emails and headlines in a week where folk have been in a bit of a bad mood. There's not long to go in the transfer window but deals are starting to happen. We hear about the latest ones involving Corey Blackett-Taylor, Rob Apter and Aaron Morley. And we look ahead to what might happen before Monday's deadline, and where Bolton are likely to strengthen. Among the topics up for debate are... Season ticket prices at the Toughsheet.

Welcome back to The Buff - and what a difference a week makes! A welcome win at Wigan was followed by a solid point at Stevenage, making things feel a little bit better in the world of Bolton Wanderers. There is plenty to contemplate, however, not least a transfer window in which Steven Schumacher's side still have plenty of work on their hands. Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back to examine the week's headlines, the transfer gossip, and read out your emails. Among the topics up for debate are... Joel Randall's exit to Blackpool on loan.

We're back! Did you miss us? When last we recorded a main episode of The Buff we were looking forward to the festive fixture list with optimism and Henry - possibly as a result of one too many chocolate liqueurs - had predicted 12 points from the five games between Wycombe and Northampton. Let's be honest, it didn't go according to plan. But why? That's what we are here to look at as The Buff makes its New Year comeback with a bumper episode filled with headlines, gossip and emails. What do we think to Steven Schumacher's squad rotation? Which Wanderers players are in danger during the January transfer window? What names have already been linked - and is there anything in them? What is written on the bathroom wall at Portman Road about Barry Knight? All of these questions are answered, along with plenty more in your number one Bolton Wanderers podcast!

THE end-of-year podcast that was so long we split it into two pieces! Hot on the heels (well, nearly two weeks after) part one, we bring you part two of our 2025 review at Bolton Wanderers. Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt discuss June onwards and make some predictions on what might happen in 2026 for the Whites. And to counteract the slightly out-of-synch enthusiasm we had at the start of December when we started this project, Marc will be bringing you some reaction from the defeat to Mansfield Town and some of the many emails we got on the subject. We will be back with the regular main show after the Northampton Town game but stay tuned for the First Word and Last Words until then! Happy new year to one and all!

WELCOME back to The Buff and this week it's a mish-mash! Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt spilt their time this week, previewing the Wycombe game, reading out your emails and doing the whole 'Buff' thing, and then splitting off to preview the first half of 2025 and what has been a pretty newsy year at Bolton Wanderers.

WELCOME back to The Buff Podcast, your weekly show discussing the very best of the Bolton Wanderers news and headlines! It has been a mixed bag this week. It was a load of bobbins against the Robins in the FA Cup, then a degree of redemption against Mansfield Town in League One. We bring you the inside scoop on both games plus all the stories which have come out of the Toughsheet this week including Mason Burstow's goal-scoring frustration, Amario Cozier-Duberry being dropped for the first time and a potential Josh Sheehan v Eoin Toal World Cup decider!

HERE it is, 300 main podcasts and still not out! After six years of this podcast malarkey, you know what to expect from The Buff by now. It's a good hour of headlines, emails, opinions and chatter, all about the wonderful football club that is Bolton Wanderers. Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt do most of the talking. And this week it's an FA Cup special, with a trip to Swindon Town to come on Saturday. We take a look at all the talking points around the game and, crucially, make some predictions on how the game will go at the County Ground. Including The First Word, The Last Word and the myriad of specials we have done down the years, we are well on our way to 500 podcasts on this feed - and we'd like to thank each and every one of you for tuning in, for emailing in with your views, telling us your stories, and when we (Henry) make a mistake.

Temperatures are dropping - but Bolton Wanderers' form has been red hot. Will it stay that way this weekend against Bradford City? Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back with another headline-packed podcast, asking exactly where Steven Schumacher's side are up to after the international break, and whether they will ever install heated seats in the press box? We cover all the stories from the past week, examine how our international contingent went on in what is the 299th episode of the main show!

The proof is in the pudding, and the pudding in this case is a football. Wanderers have gone goal crazy this week and we think Marcus Forss has got a foot like a traction engine. Look back at an action packed week at Bolton Wanderers with Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt, along with a trawl through the best of the headlines in The Bolton News. We discuss Super Amario Cozier-Duberry, once again, look at the return of Will Forrester and Kyle Dempsey and analyse all the juicy bits from the fans Q&A at the Toughsheet Stadium. As ever we read out your emails, we bring you a tale of 'Why I'm a Wanderer' and we would bring you some predictions, if there was anything to predict. But instead we'll probably just wish Josh Sheehan and Eoin Toal good luck!  
The Buff is back with another delve into the week's stories at Bolton Wanderers. Join Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt to discuss the growing belief around the Toughsheet that after three straight wins, the future is bright for Steven Schumacher's side. There are plenty of stories to discuss - from Dan Nlundulu's comments about social media abuse to Dion Charles's long-awaited return to goal-scoring form, Kyle Dempsey's claim on a first team place to Ibrahim Cissoko's FA Cup revival. We read out your emails and ask the question: Are Bolton Wanderers over-reliant on loan players?  We get a great U-turn in 'Why I'm a Wanderer' and the boys give their predictions for what happens this weekend against Port Vale, and even in the Vertu Trophy match at Oldham next Tuesday! And, yes, we investigate the famous Birdman of Burnden Park. We have a very special offer for listeners of The Buff Podcast - so take note.

MWAH ha ha ha ha ha! It's Halloween, so here at The Buff we're getting into the spirit (ahem). Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt bring you the best of the Bolton Wanderers news from the week along with a handful of ghostly goings on. We read out your emails and make some predictions ahead of the FA Cup clash with Huddersfield Town.
Welcome back to The Buff (oinks). I'm Marc Iles, the chief football writer of The Bolton News (oinks). This is my little co-cost, Henry Hewitt (oinks). Right, enough of that. We're back with another round of headlines, gossip and general Bolton Wanderers tomfoolery, all wrapped up in podcast form. This week we will be looking back at a thrilling win against Huddersfield Town and asking: "Was it really a miracle?" We celebrate Max Conway's contract with a tale of lost audio and reveal why the Bolton Wanderers press may never be invited back to the Accu Stadium again. Ian Evatt is back in football with Blackpool, so there's that, and Will Forrester is back in contention, along with a stack of other centre-halves. What happens next? As ever, we read out your emails - including a heated debate on football clubs that are dwarfed by their rugby-playing counterparts - and we bring you a tale of terrace fisticuffs in our latest 'Why I'm a Wanderer' story. And of course we'll be putting our necks on the line with our predictions for the weekend's game against League One leaders Cardiff City.

WELCOME back to The Buff Podcast, where nothing really matters... Anyone can see! Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back to guide you through the week's events at Bolton Wanderers - and this episode has been produced especially early so it can be digested before Thursday night's game at Huddersfield Town. Saturday's defeat at Burton Albion raised plenty of questions and, as ever, the Buffeteers have provided us with plenty of emails to trigger some debate. Prepare for a few sharp opinions in this week's episode! We bring you all the headlines from The Bolton News, including injuries to Thierry Gale and Ethan Erhahon, Ian Evatt's admission on his Wanderers exit and 'Sprinkler-Gate'. Along with your emails we find out why one of you is a Wanderer, and give out some predictions.  We have a very special offer for listeners of The Buff Podcast - so take note. Subscription to The Bolton News will be up to 40 per cent cheaper, just because you tune in! Our special podcast subscription page entitles you to three months of unlimited articles for just £3, or a whole year's worth for £31, which works out at a 40 per cent saving.
