Welcome back to The First Word and the start to a matchday weekend!

It's that time again as Wanderers host Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup first round, aiming for a similar outcome to the league meeting just over a fortnight ago (but hopefully not so late this time!)

We hear from Steven Schumacher, plus Bolton mega-fan Russ Pollitt drops by to offer his thoughts on the game and we also get a chat with Steven Chicken from We Are Terriers to get the lowdown on Lee Grant's side and their poor form.

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 (late) Last Word, and a chance to re-live those stoppage time shenanigans from Amario Cozier-Duberry that sunk League One leaders Cardiff City.

This looked like being a tough podcast to record at one point, with neither side able to muster a shot on target over 90 minutes. We even considered whether Henry Hewitt would have to start reciting the phone book for content.

But then with one wave of his magical left boot ACD changed it all, and so we present a packed podcast full of interviews and reaction, and not a single page of the Thompson Local in sight.

Hear from Steven Schumacher and Josh Sheehan from the press conference along with Henry and Russ Pollitt giving their view on the game, and all the usual waffle/commentary from Marc Iles, attempting to piece together the action.

Welcome back to The First Word and the start to a matchday weekend!

Cardiff City are in town and Wanderers are looking to claw back some ground on the league leaders in a game which promises to be a close fought affair.

We hear from Steven Schumacher and Sam Dalby from the press conference at Lostock, Bolton mega-fan Russ Pollitt drops by to offer his thoughts on the game and we also get a chat with Ben Price of the View from the Ninian podcast, with all the information from the Bluebirds' side of the equation.

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 Last Word - and an amazing comeback from Wanderers!

Goals from Sam Dalby and Amario Cozier-Duberry snatched three points from the jaws of defeat at the Accus Stadium in one of the most memorable finales in recent memory.

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.

Welcome back to The Last Word on a dismal day for Wanderers.

A 3-0 defeat at Burton Albion was a tough pill to swallow as Bolton's wait for an away win continued in front of another sell-out allocation of travelling supporters.

Marc Iles talks you through all the major points from the game, we hear from Steven Schumacher on the result and defender George Johnston, plus there is insight from Whites fan Henry Hewitt.

We're back again with the perfect appetiser to the weekend, and something you can listen to on the journey down to Burton Albion.

The First Word brings you all the best from the pre-match press conference, including interviews with Steven Schumacher and Marcus Forss, plus Dan Barnes chats to Edward Walker of the excellent Brewers Babble Podcast to find out how the land lies at the Pirelli Stadium.

The First Word for your weekend!

Welcome back to The Buff Podcast, and a show that celebrates a win against Peterborough United, however it came about.

Yes, the Whites were not at their free-flowing best against Posh but with three juicy points in hand, should we really care how they got there?

Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt pick the morsels from the matchday carcass and look ahead to this weekend's trip to Burton Albion. A friendly ground with a nightmarish mascot.

We review all the Bolton Wanderers headlines from The Bolton News, read out your emails and also bring back the 'Why I'm a Wanderer' segment, with tales of how you guys started following the club.
