Merry Buff-mas ladies and gents, and to celebrate the festive season, Marc and Henry have recorded a special series of 12 episodes to keep you entertained every day to the New Year!

Every day we'll be centring on one of Henry's favourite Bolton players of the last few decades before Marc brings the tone down with a curious tale, or a bizarre name from Wanderers' murky past.

We'll be back with the main show on Friday, January 3 - but for now sit back, relax and enjoy some quality BWFC chat.

We are 10 episodes in and the topic of our latest show is Keith Branagan - the reliable presence between the sticks for Wanderers in the Bruce Rioch and Colin Todd years.

In the second half of the pod we look at a deal that didn't work out - ex-England, Liverpool and Newcastle United front man, Peter Beardsley, and why his time at Bolton turned into a nightmare.
