Height

[RammyBlade]

Well we have added a bit of much needed height to the squad with Hanson at 6'4 and O'Shea at 6'0
Looking at our bench yesterday it was like loooking at the seven dwarfs !! Ramsden excepted

I think we can safely say the days of "big and strong Sheffield United" are over!

It's taken a while!

I'm genuinely interested to know when we last had a big, strong team. I'm thinking maybe when Dellas had his stint with us?

That sounds about right - the Basset days were the halcyon days of having a tall physical side overall. The pigs went up with a side packed with giants,as did Charlton, Preston and Bristol City. This year Bolton look as though they have the tall physical qualities to go up.
Its not just in attack that tall players help but in defence as well

You put a 6' 4" Sheffield United player at the side of any other teams 6' 4" player and ours to me will look smaller,why is that,is it the kit.

That Fleetwood kit made their players look gynormous.

Is it mi eye's

Could be, or it could be that your 5' 2"??

Some say a few on the pitch were behaving like Snow White.

It is a fact that it has been a while since a team of midgets stormed L1, or D3 before it either
