    In 2 years, who knows.
    Err Howdydoo Matt Penney is taller than ex-miller left back favourite Paul Hurst, look at his career with the Millers,
    Matt Penney is 1.73 Metres - Paul Hurst is 1.65 metres

    Why does the players height make a difference, hes a fullback / left side defender.

    Height is useful Ericslad when deep cross field balls come in or corners or a Will Vaulks throw in
    However, as you say it didn't seem to affect Hursty who seemed to get better each season
