Peter Crouch kept his promise and gave a Stoke super-fan his match-worn shirt after the die-hard Potters supporter came to St Mary\u2019s in a scuba mask and Speedos, according to a report by\u00a0?The Sun.<\/p>\n

Tyrone Sidley, a life-long Stoke fan, made the pre-match arrangement with Crouch, via Twitter, and was treated not only to Crouchie\u2019s sweat-soaked shirt, but also to\u00a0an important\u00a0goal from imposing striker.<\/p>\n

Crouch\u2019s goal proved decisive with his header on the hour mark sealing victory over Southampton on the last day of the season. After the match, the former England international\u00a0approached the stands to meet the fan after their Twitter interaction.<\/p>\n

The 36-year-old former Liverpool and Spurs man said he was sent pictures of the supporter\u2019s get-up in a pub before the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw him before the game”, Crouch said. \u201cHe sent me some pictures from the pub before-hand. It was incredible, fair play to him.<\/p>\n

“I’m glad we won so I could go and have my picture with a guy in Speedos. Absolute hero and I am pleased we got the win for him as well.”<\/p>\n

Sidley also got the chance to meet Charlie Adam who also gave him his shirt, despite not being in the team for the final Premier League game of the campaign.<\/p>\n

Stoke City and Peter Crouch\u2019s official Twitter accounts replied to Sidley after he tweeted his request to the lanky striker\u00a0last Thursday.<\/inline>?\u00a0<\/p>\n
