The Buff Presents: Transfer rumours, gossip consumers... The summer starts here!
The season may be over at Bolton Wanderers but at Buff Towers, the hard jobs" target="_blank">work has only just begun.
We fire up the transfer speculation machine to try and pick out some of the possible summer targets and talk about some of the rumours which have already surfaced.
The retained list was announced this week, and we look at how that could affect all corners of the club as Steven Schumacher begins his rebuilding mission.
Does the Bolton boss have to make some ruthless decisions on the contracted players at Bolton? Marc and Henry look at a few of the players who could be under threat.
As ever, we answer your quickfire questions and read out your emails – all whilst trying to forget the grim reality of the fact the play-offs will be starting this weekend without us!
