Tallest and smallest Boro players

[Redlips]

Alan Wright 5 foot max. He is now plying his trade as a recreation assistant in the rainbow centre.

Tallest that lad from Sierra Leone, kai.

 

[Jedi boro]

Pally must be up there for tallest.

 

[ThePrisoner]

Stan Cummins?

 

[festa5]

Schwarzer for tallest?

Kei Kamara was only 6"3

Pally was 6"4 and I think Crooks and Wheater are both 6"4 as well.

Jamal Blackman was 6"6. Think he only played one game on loan from Chelsea. He scored 1 and conceded 16.

Aden Flint was another 6"6 player.

How tall was Stuey Boam

 

[red_clowne]

6 foot 2, eyes of blue - apparently ;-)

 

[Badonde]

Steve Spriggs was a little squirt

 

[BoroMart]

Alan Wright 5 foot max. He is now plying his trade as a recreation assistant in the rainbow centre.

He was like a Subbuteo player come to life

 

[EuropeTwice]

The little fella?

 

[Badonde]

Off topic slightly.
But does anyone remember that German Lurch playing for Millwall a few years ago?
Oh how we laughed at his slow ungainly movement.....until he scored twice in the first half
6 foot 8

BTW guess how many goals he scored for Millwall that season?

Higgy an Barmby "Midget gems"

 

[Redlips]

Alan Wright got a mullered every time he played.

The Mighty Atom -5ft 4in.

 

[atypical_boro]

Alan Wright got a mullered every time he played.

I think he only started two games?

 

[TheBoroBuzzard]

Must be something in the name ‘Wright’..wasn’t Tommy Wright 5ft nothing? Class player, struck a brilliant rapport with Wilko

Alan Comfort, another pocket gem...career cruelly ended by injury when looking like a great acquisition…think he became a vicar IIRC

 

[alanmoodysdog]

mick saxby was tall as was Mick baxter and stan cummings got to be one of the smallest

 

[Lemmy_kilmister]

Vince Hilaire told me that the only thing that made Stan Cummins the smallest player at Crystal Place was the size of Vinces afro.

 

[Anton_Berg]

Early 70s the Gazette announced a 'big signing' who turned out to be a very tall lad from Scarborough. Can't think of the name, and pretty sure he didn't make the first team but he must have been the tallest on the clubs books at least until Flint.

 

[BobUpnDown]

Flint has to be up there, 6'7" of not very much for £7m...
We've had a few smaller players... Wright would certainly be in amongst them... who was the winger also Tommy Wright iirc.. he always seemed small, though scored a few...
