JOIN Marc Iles and Henry Hewitt for a round-up of the week’s news at Bolton Wanderers.
We examine a ridiculous injury list at the UniBol and wonder how it could possibly get any worse, plus look at the short-term fixes that might exist in Ian Evatt’s squad.
We speak to ex-Bolton midfielder Mark Patterson about his new book, and a signing session he has planned at the club shop this weekend (1pm, Saturday).
And, of course, we have some Wanderers-themed games, including Danny Shittu and Squad Game… Both of which must not be missed. 
All that, and we bring you a full review of Tuesday night’s win against Doncaster and a preview of the upcoming games against Cheltenham in League One, and Fleetwood in the Papa John’s Trophy.

Season 3, Episode 16: It's last man standing at Wanderers

ON this week’s New Year’s edition of The Buff podcast Marc and Henry take a good look at the January transfer window and suss out some of the rumours already surfacing at the UniBol.
We discuss the impending arrival of Dion Charles from Accrington, the speculation over Rotherham’s Kieran Sadlier and the possibility that Eoin Doyle could leave Wanderers to move back to Ireland.
We also discuss how Covid could affect the Whites as they prepare to return to action at Rotherham United on New Year’s Day, and how football is going to cope with another spike in cases.
We read out your emails once again and engage in a controversy-free game of Danny Shittu, just for a change.
We’d like to wish all the listeners of The Buff a healthy and prosperous 2022 and ask you to keep supporting the podcast – we appreciate every single one of you!
