Fat Footballers

[Kinky Gerbil]

I wa impressed that there was at least 3 obese players on the pitch today.

Trundle, Robinson and Mccloud

This for me was the highlight of the game

There were a few Porkers in the Preston/Burnley match yesterday...The Beast in goal for Burnley along with Mellor and Parkin for Preston..seems like it's the trend..

 

[Hungry Joe]

A few more beards thrown in and we could be back to the good old days.

I thought McLeod was looking a bit trimmer yesterday actually. Didn't help his performance much though.

I remember a certain Mr Duffy coming on against Reading and scoring the winning goal and he WAS a barrel

Their number 4, Johnathan Douglas, is hardly skinny either is he?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

I forgot Johnson as well

 

[Simon Morgan]

Jason Scotland of Swansea and Adebayo Akinfenwa of Northampton are also both absolutely huge!! I don't know how these players get away with it.

Sounds like a conveniant excuse but I would imagine there are some people who are simply never going to be 'skinny', even if they are as fit as every other player. If someone has a 'broad' build, they're just going to look a bit fatter.

Akinfenwa is certainly not the kind of build I'd expet for a professional footballer though!

 

[One True BHA]

Mayo, Birchall and McLeod are not fit enough to play professional football.

They look out of place on the pitch.

His face was bright red after 5 minutes though.
