Wolves goalkeeper shows what a Ruddy nice chap he is

He’s a super saver on the pitch and a lifesaver off it for one rail passenger who was having trouble with the ticket machine.

Wolves goalkeeper John Ruddy was spotted helping a train passenger work the machine on a platform at Ipswich Railway Station after the Wolves game at Portman Road.

It came not long after Wolves had got back to winning ways against Ipswich in their 0-1 away win over the weekend.

Ruddy - who once played for Ipswich Town’s rivals Norwich City – has family in the area and was thought to be on his way to see them after the match.

A fan who tweeted the picture taken by Adrian Dobson said on Twitter: "Love this photo of John Ruddy helping an elderly gent to buy his ticket at Ipswich station tonight @Wolves."

Others replied ‘class act’.
