Great read. Never ceases to amaze me how SJW is so often the go to Boo Boy on here. In the crap days we dreamed of watching players who would give every last ounce in the Stoke shirt. Arguably our most committed player in the modern era but still not good enough for a few people. Mental. Bar his misguided political tweets I don't think Walters has ever let himself or his club down.

He's hugely popular amongst the match going stoke city supporters. I don't get it myself but he is!

It's a fact the no matter how many forwards past and present Stoke managers bring in, John forces his way back into starting XI consideration. He still keeps popping up with goals. He is 100% effort and superb at helping out with defence.

I think like many others that SJW is and has been a fantastic servant to our club and long may he continue, I would be over the moon if SJW continues in some capacity coaching here when the inevitable hanging up of his boots arrives.

SJW will never be the newer or younger fans favourite ,some will not like him because he was signed by TP,why the majority of match going fans appriate him is he as not got the flowing skills of some,but what he as got is graft,never gives up even if he is having a bad game and as working class fans he more like a working class player.Not someone who has 1/2 a good season and thinks he's too good for us.

To be fair I struggle to remember the last Stoke player booed by Stoke fans!?!?!? A reflection of how good we've had it perhaps. All that aside I know you love SJW deep down.....you're just fighting it.....just go with it!!!

The poster is talking rubbish then. Commenting on individual performances when they're poor doesn't make a player a boo boy. I've criticised bojan's recent efforts. I love the lad. Doesn't stop me saying he's been crap when he's been crap. Jon Walters a boo boy? Sorry, I'm simply not having it.

If you don't like boo boy.....I'll rephrase.....scapegoat. He misses a sitter.....we have pages and pages. He scores.......it's the odd post. Factoid.

A cheap dig at Arnie there. What did you think of your working class hero when he himself attempted to hold the club over a barrel and force a move away earlier this season. I suppose that was acceptable?

I always think it was a master stroke from Pulis by chasing Walters to sign. I always think we are better and more comfortable with Jon in the team

I think what a lot of people seem to forget is that he pops in with goals every now and then
He probably 'technically' is an average footballer
But more than makes up for that with effort and goals
If he didnt score them than we'd have got rid of him ages ago when Hughes came in ...... like Jerome

I have not yet met a Stokie who does not value SJW's contribution to the team, past or present. Does not mean that there are not groans every time he mis-controls the ball or gets caught in possession, but the same people generally tend to applaud or sing his name when he contributes positively. Me included.
A small minority may not value him and there are others with agendas (like with most players), but overall SJW gets deserved praise and some deserved stick too. Thats typical for a player like Jon with limited ability but loads of heart. Not a boo-boy though.
