COME, gather round the podcast equivalent of the office water cooler and let's talk transfers, as Bolton Wanderers' summer finally gets lift-off.

After the addition of Sam Dalby came Xavier Simons (a deal not completed when we recorded) and the promise of more.

But, alas, there was another transfer everyone was talking about this week, and that is the possibility that Wanderers could cash in on last season's top scorer, Aaron Collins.

Marc and Henry discuss all the possible whos, whys and wherefores, along with all the other headlines of the week from The Bolton News and your emails.

NOT content with providing a comprehensive review of the week's Bolton Wanderers headlines in The Bolton News, plus an update on all the transfer news at the Toughsheet Stadium, Marc and Henry have decided to give you a special episode this week.

Following on from the regular Buff, we continue our countdown of the 50 best Bolton Wanderers players to have represented the club in the Premier League with numbers 24 down to one.

If you tuned into The Buff last week, you'll know how we compiled the votes using a special panel of judges (and Henry) along with thousands of votes cast by the Bolton Wanderers fans online.

We can probably guess which players are at the top end of this list... But in which order will they be announced?

Let us know if anyone worthy has missed out, or what you think about the stars who made the top end of this list by emailing thebuffmail@gmail.com

WELCOME back to The Buff Podcast, or to put it more accurately, the first part of this week's Buff Podcast.

Marc and Henry are back again to talk you through the week's transfer news (or lack thereof) and all the headlines from The Bolton News.

On the menu this week, the chase for Sam Dalby and why he may be being pre-judged unfairly, Ricardo Santos's impending move to Swansea, the new CEO and head of recruitment and why Marc has some mixed memories of his last pre-season trip to Hibs.

But wait, that's not all!

We promised you we would bring you the countdown from 24 to one on our 50 best BWFC players of the Premier League era, and we will... Just on the second part of the podcast!

WELCOME back to a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious episode of The Buff Podcast, bringing you all the best Bolton Wanderers content in the off-season!

Sure, Marc might have been off work this week and, sure, Henry is still confused about the pronunciation of sporadic, but that doesn't mean we can't bring you another episode to liven your summer.

This week, we look at Fergal Harkin's interview with the club, analysing what direction the club could take under the new sporting director and whether pushing the younger players can be a policy that works for the Whites.

Marc and Henry look back to the predictions they made last August and how woefully wide of the mark they were, particularly when it came to Bristol Rovers.

The Bolton News published their top 50 Premier League players this week - and we run down numbers 50 to 25, with a few surprising names making the list.

And, as ever, we answer your email questions - so keep those requests coming in!

WELCOME back to The Buff Podcast - and who said nothing ever happens in the summer?

Sit back and relax as Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt guide you through another hour-plus of Bolton Wanderers headlines, chat and opinion, all from the pages of The Bolton News.

On this week's show we look at the latest transfer news which has been circulating the club on 'TRGS' - which is a short way of saying Transfer Rumours, Gossip Consumers.

We ask if Ian Evatt is a good fit for Cardiff City, if George Thomason stands to keep the captaincy next season and whether Bolton will be a different prospect once they have got rid of the Wembley shadow.

IT'S that time of year when everyone in football has disappeared and the rest of us are left to speculate on what might happen when the transfer window reopens.

For those lucky enough to get away, grab your earbuds and tune in to another episode of headlines, gossip and general Wanderers chit-chat with Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt, which only occasionally goes off-topic, and only sometimes gets interrupted by an Amazon delivery driver.

If you are the sort of BWFC fan who wonders if Djibril Diawara could still do a job in League One (he's 50, by the way), then you officially qualify to listen to our podcast.

This week's show brings you another round of transfer rumours, including a Walsall midfielder, Nathan Baxter's next move and a former target of Fergal Harkin that has once again been linked with Bolton.

And we thumb through the week's headlines in The Bolton News to see what - if anything has happened.

As always, we read out your emails and answer your quick-fire questions, including the drastic measures that Henry would take if his son turned out to be a Manchester United or Wigan fan.

The season may be over at Bolton Wanderers but at Buff Towers, the hard work has only just begun.

We fire up the transfer speculation machine to try and pick out some of the possible summer targets and talk about some of the rumours which have already surfaced.

The retained list was announced this week, and we look at how that could affect all corners of the club as Steven Schumacher begins his rebuilding mission.

Does the Bolton boss have to make some ruthless decisions on the contracted players at Bolton? Marc and Henry look at a few of the players who could be under threat.

As ever, we answer your quickfire questions and read out your emails – all whilst trying to forget the grim reality of the fact the play-offs will be starting this weekend without us!

WELCOME back for the very last, Last Word this season and a podcast that attempts to make the 1-1 draw against Stevenage semi-listenable.

Marc Iles is back with the 55th and final episode detailing the last act of a disappointing season at the Toughsheet Stadium, summed up by a frustrating Saturday afternoon.

Russ Pollitt drops by with his takeaways from the 90 minutes and we hear from Steven Schumacher after the game, plus an exclusive excerpt from the Player of the Year awards dinner with Vernon Kay and Chris Forino talking about the win against Wigan Athletic. See, it hasn't all been bad news.

Thank you very much for listening to The Last Word this season and making the podcast so popular. We'll be back in August but please tune in for The Buff every Friday... We're not allowed to stop!
