No way was the Ship only 6'2. He was 6'4", read it many times and was almost equal to Micky Droy at Chelsea who was 6'5" and probably the tallest of that era.
Heaviest Player = Bob Bolder? That'll go down well in hospitality if he finds out! 'Who ate all the pies...........who ate all the pies..........still a great keeper though and top bloke to go with it.
I think that it was Graham and Johnny Harrison that we had in the same team that once featured as the tallest and shortest in the league at the same time. Often wrong so happy to be put straight.

Not sure I believe that Simonsen was that skinny. Some mistake surely?
But neither have played for the firs team yet.
He's only five foot eight
He's better than Terry Waite
Chris Solly Solly"
"Chris Solly Solly
He's only five foot four

And Michael Smith (1 first team game) is about the same.
Therry Racon couldn't have been very tall, because he could totally disappear in a game.
There was a Terry Waite Special dish in a curry house in Blackheath..... bread and water!
Anyone mentioned Long John Hewie Yet??
