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.
