Would have been easy if they had put his height in imperial measure, I also work in  £sd. Pounds and ounces.

What, as chief taster?

I think that’s made up. Reports say he’s 185cms which is 6ft 1in

I thought Fido would like to know I’m also 6ft 1! He did call.

Saw him a few times in pre season sounds like he's improved immensely since then.

Depends the time you’re measured in the day. In the morning most of us are 2cm taller than at the end of the day. I’d call that 6 1. I’ve been measured at 185 to 186.5cm dependent on the time of day. Our spines compress due to gravity.

Anyhow, back on the money, I hope we get him back too. Button is a waste of space.

I've never seen him play, but reports sound good.

You normally find very tall keepers have a problem getting down quickly. Hope this isn't the case with him.

Can we please put this 6'1 nonsense to bed. The kid is fucking massive. Cowley who works with him everyday said he was 6'7.

Like I said I saw him 18 months ago and he was easily 6'5.

There are sites that have him at 6'1, 6'5, 6'6 and 6'7.

No. Just gym measurements over the years. I knew a girl who was a chiropractor and she mentioned that we all shrink due to a jelly type material between our vertebrae. It fills with water type stuff as we sleep. It also works less efficiently as we age which is why you see some old people shrink.

This board is a broad church Fido and a handy bit of general knowledge that is that you’ll use at a dinner party at some time in the near future.

When you get sciatica that jelly stuff plays up it's like a donut
