Just looked at the size of our new recruits -

Wilson 6 foot; Evans 6 foot 1; Leonard 6 foot 1.

Add to that Leon and Don at 6 foot 2 and 6 foot 1, and it makes Lunny at 5 foot 11 and a half look like a dwarf!

What a change from Nigel’s mighty midgets.

Chris likes players with heart who give their all, but he clearly likes a good few big ‘uns.

These days Irn Bru Man and Duff have the low altitude air to themselves!

Magic Comes in all Sizes
 



Something that struck me last season watching the championship was how big most of the players were. I think we've done well to deal with that so far but a few more big lads will certainly help.
 
I remember thinking we looked physically smaller in the early part of the season. I'm guessing that's why CCV has played so many games
 
Evans is 6ft 1? From the bits I’ve seen of him (not much admittedly) I thought he was fairly short
 
Might actually start scoring a few more from set pieces now, something we have been lacking!
 
At Boro & more so at Cardiff early season we looked a bit lightweight & got outpowered . As said above I think that’s why CCV was brought in ala EEL last season to counter this in certain games . As we know with the likes of Bolton you need a bit of extra height in depending set pieces , but let’s see what they are like with ball on the deck , the management are usually quite astute in who they’ve added ...so looking forward to see what they bring to the table

Had to laugh earlier with SSN reporting Jerome Sinclair is possibly going to Den Haag to get some first team football ... I wonder if he’ll fly to Schipol & have around the duty free for a couple of hours while his agent decides whether he can play a game of football this season ?
 
We have certainly been out-muscled too often over the last few seasons. CW is doing an excellent job of giving us a skilful and powerful squad which might well give us a good chance of promotion this season or next.
 
Blackman 6ft7
Wright 6ft1
Heneghan 6ft5
Stearman 6ft3
O'Connell 6ft2
Stevens 6ft
Basham 6ft3
Leonard 6ft1
Evans 6ft1
Clarke 6ft2
Donaldson 6ft1

Recall Hanson and Ger it forrad as apparently we have no Plan B
CHARGE!!!!!

The average height went up massively the moment Scougall left.
 



Atleast, some proper height players...
 
Odd then that some wanted Terry Kennedy at centre-back and still kid themselves that Little Louis has a future at our club.

One rule for one...
