    The Buff doesn't disappear during the summer, it doesn't take hydration breaks, it doesn't feel pain and it can't be reasoned with... All that aside, welcome back, and please join Marc and Henry for another episode packed with headlines from The Bolton News. We look at Wanderers' second signing of the summer, Ben Davies, and what he can bring to the club next season. Links to Liverpool players are investigated, and we assess whether Luton Town is a good move for George Johnston (spoiler: It is).
