Question of the Week: Just what was written on those little bits of paper Gary Caldwell was passing to the Wigan Athletic players during the match against Bradford on Saturday?
You probably saw Calds carefully rip bits of paper from his flowery notebook before furtively shoving them into his unsuspecting players’ hands. But what exactly was scribbled on them?
To find the answer, AGL spent 15 minutes scouring the DW pitch post-match to retrieve said scraps of paper. And now, after hours of carefully deciphering Captain Cald’s barely legible scrawl, we can exclusively reveal their surprising contents.
