Shall we kick off with Junior Bent (surely our shortest ever player) and inch by inch work our way up?
 
Alan Wright - but what a fullback he was.
I spoke with Jnr Bent in St. Annes when he was working in banking. He is only short but a tricky player and he is a nice guy. He didn't have anything nice at all to say about 'that' family (he said retching at the thought of their name) but out of respect, I'll keep what he said between us.
 
Diddy in Ireland is slang for tits lol

So if ur talking about the biggest tits we had playing with us Tom Ince always found him obnoxious and that Murphy lad who was posting about Blackpool losing before kick off years ago on social media.
 
Ernie Taylor, possibly the best of the lot. A tiny genius. 5' 4" only but what a player. He was skinny too, no weight at all.
Sorry Whits, just saw your post.
I always remember a match report after Pool played, and thrashed, Newcastle, where we got him from.
The headline was 'Tiny Taylors Tricks Tantalise Tynesiders', 😁

Definitely the shortest ever to be used as a target man up front ... thanks, Nigel Worthless

I’ll raise (or lower) you Jamie Milligan
 
Neil Mitchell, Martin Bullock, Lee Collins, Jay Spearing, Brian Griffiths
Peterborough had a winger a few years ago who ran us ragged ... Jon Taylor ? He looked tiny
For a goalkeeper Lee Martin never looked big ?
 
Mark Cullen was only about 5,7" and why I never understood why anyone (MugDonald) would start a season with two shorties up top!
 
If this guy from West ham is anywhere near the quality of Colin Morris !(then we really are in for a treat,if he plays on the wing of course).
