Height

[Ricky]

Even with Fleck back we'll have at least 6 players above 6"0 if Donaldson stays in the team.

We might not be a hoofball team but I have a theory that winning the battles and headers only helps.

 

[Northyorksblade]

Carter-Vickers 6"0
Stearman 6"1
O'Connell 6"2
Basham 6"2
Lundstram 6"1
Donaldson 6"1
Clarke 6"2


Very useful and a welcome bonus.

Useful Saturday v Bolton.

And it's a whoosh, not a f******g woosh!!

You've got me their. I'll except that gilt, bang two rites

 

[Pinchy]

Stearman is 6"3 I believe

As is Bash. Height isn’t vital all over the park but it certainly helps down the spine.

Moore is also about 6-2 and Stevens is a six footer as well.

We have a bit of veteran pace and power with Leon and the Don too. What a handful they were for the hapless Sunderland defenders..

 

[Ranmoorblade]

All short arses apart from Blackman.

 

[Champagneblade]

9 of the forst XI are 6ft or above.

Exceptions being Duffy and Baldock, the latter clearly has no issue heading either!

Fleck will probably come in sooner rather than later. Do we try and beat them at their game or ours?

Carter-Vickers 6"0
Stearman 6"1
O'Connell 6"2
Basham 6"2
Lundstram 6"1
Donaldson 6"1
Clarke 6"2


Very useful and a welcome bonus.

I believe Stevens isn’t far off 6ft and is good in the air.

Also as Baldock looks like a fancy boy he’s very good in the air as can be seen by his goal.

baldock is proof why height didn't matter yesterday, he's only about 5'8 and beat a near 6 foot bloke to head home

 

[Willie Carlin]

Carter-Vickers 6"0
Stearman 6"1
O'Connell 6"2
Basham 6"2
Lundstram 6"1
Donaldson 6"1
Clarke 6"2


Very useful and a welcome bonus.

. Yes and one of our smallest players scored with a header yesterday against 6 ft plus defenders.
