IT might be the international break – but that hasn’t stopped the headlines flowing at Bolton Wanderers.

The Buff is back once again to guide you through the week’s news around the Toughsheet Stadium, which has included a potentially damaging defeat at Derby County, a surprising international call for Dion Charles and a major decision on the horizon about safe standing.

We also delve into the biggest football story anywhere in the UK this week – the impending introduction of an independent football regulator, and we ask how it will affect Bolton and finances in the wider world.

Who Are You is back again with your suggestions for the letter ‘S’ and, we’ll be honest, there were too many to list this week, so we’ll be bring you part two next time!
