'Some things transcend football' - Speedo Mick given Merseyside derby ticket

Despite being a die-hard Evertonian and possessing a ticket in the home end for Sunday's Merseyside derby, Michael Cullen is expecting the warmest of welcomes.

The 55-year-old – fittingly known as Speedo Mick – is taking a short break from his fundraising mission to walk the length of Britain in a pair of swimming briefs to attend the FA Cup third-round encounter.

Mick is more than halfway towards his target of £100,000 for community projects for disadvantaged young people by making the 1,000-mile walk from John O'Groats to Land's End.

So cold so windy.
