You’ve got to love Jon Walters.
Blatant Republic of Ireland bias aside, the Stoke City man is a pretty likable buck.
Whether it’s his performances on the field or his sense of humour off it, it seems like very few people have any problem with the striker.
Well, apart from fans of rival clubs and perhaps Wayne Rooney, who is rumoured to be still applying Aloe Vera gel to that sensational burn during Euro 2016.

So when a man wearing a speedo (and not much else) came running up to him on a country road, of course Walters was going to give him some money.
Wait, wait, we’ve missed out on a lot of context there. Let us fill you in.
The man wearing the swim gear was Everton superfan Michael Cullen AKA ‘Speedo Mick’. He is walking from Buckingham Palace to the Merseyside Derby in his speedos to raise £10,000 for the Charlie’s Chance Foundation, who help young children afford to travel to receive necessary treatments.
Charlie has received an anonymous donation which allows her to travel to the US, but good ol’ Speedo Mick has decided to keep the campaign going to help other sick children.
You can donate to the worthy cause by heading over to his JustGiving page.
Big shout out to @JonWalters19 of @stokecity for stopping and donating £50, #not to big for his boots, #Trueblue an All @Charlieschance pic.twitter.com/TZOKbGIXob
