Bolton defender Mark Little accidentally loses wallet and wedding ring
Twitter plea does the trick after defender gave away much more than he bargained for having staved off relegation
BOLTON defender Mark Little was happy to hand his jacket over to a fan after helping the club stay in the Championship.
But he did not reckon on giving up his wallet and wedding ring too.
The former Bristol City and Wolves ace, 29, gave away much more than he intended after the Trotters' vital 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest.
What seemed a decent gesture turned into a nightmare for the right-back, who soon discovered he had offloaded his wallet and wedding ring by mistake.
So Little posted a plea on Twitter for his personal items to be returned.
He got lucky. Little later found his wallet and, after a supporter posted in a Facebook group that the ring had been found, looks set to be reunited with that too.
