Chelsea and England captain John Terry showed a touch of class at the end of Saturday's win at Stoke City.

The Daily Mail says Terry was giving a television interview at the side of the pitch long after the final whistle when an uncomplimentary chorus echoed from a hundred or so Stoke stragglers enjoying the hospitality in an otherwise empty stand.

Instead of heading straight down the tunnel, the England captain trotted up the steps towards his tormentors and signed enough autographs to have the Stoke fans eating out of his hand.
