Show Notes
Welcome back to The Buff Podcast and a show that promises to bring you right up to date with a week’s worth of Bolton Wanderers headlines. Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt are back to discuss the Whites’ valiant point at Southampton and look ahead to Friday night’s televised game against Middlesbrough… Amario Cozier-Duberry and all! We examine Lewis Brunt and Eoin Toal’s burgeoning partnership at centre-half, whether Steven Schumacher’s organisation could help keep Wanderers in the Championship and debate whether having first team players in the Under-21s is sensible. As ever, we read out your emails – including BWFC themed pets, the quiz question and a complaint from an international viewer. We were also privileged to read out a Why I’m a Wanderer story of Bolton fan Neil Halton, who sadly passed away at the weekend. Marc and Henry make their predictions for the Middlesbrough match and try to come up with a plan to defeat that pesky Super Amario.

The Team Talk crew are back together at last, and have plenty to discuss after two wonderful results on the road for Bolton Wanderers. Will, Wayne and Tom join Marc Iles to debate some of the key questions including... Have the last two results changed your mind any on Bolton’s destiny this season? Can two full-backs work on Bolton’s right? Does the Toal-Brunt partnership deserve to be first choice now, or is it a matter of time before Forino/Davies step in? Could Thelonius Bair be a valid replacement for Dalby? Atsuki Ito’s start with Wanderers. And how are Wanderers going to fare against Middlesbrough?

Welcome back to The Last Word - and a round-up of a hard--fought draw for Bolton Wanderers at Southampton. Only Millwall have managed to stop the Saints scoring at St Mary's in 2026.

Marc Iles takes you through the details, we have interviews with the Bolton boss and Luca Stephenson, Henry Hewitt drops in with his view of the game and there's the all-important Press Scran Review.
