    To add to this I’m 6ft 4 and built like a tank, my brother however is 5,11 and of a smaller build.. Perhaps I ate more than him as a kid 🤷🏻

    Love it when a little un scores with his head. Kevin Keegan springs to mind for his ability to jump and Michael Owen for being in the right place. Saw his stats and I think he scored more than 40 headers for clubs and country.

    Any diminutive Albion players with the knack?

    David Speedie? Any more?
    Kevin Phillips.

    The Dutch are on average a far taller people than we are, I can’t remember the reason but it is genetic.

    They reckon 7 feet won’t be unusual for a bloke in a 100 years.

    Let’s hope all other parts grow in relation.

    I'm just under 6 ft, I would have 6/3 if I didn't have bow legs.
    My twin brother is 5 ft 5 inches.
