Kearney. He spikes his hair to give him an extra few inches but he's fooling no one
And he's crap.
For you.....but then again he didnt like ye and didnt wanna be there, sounds familiar actually same thing happening this year with Fenn.Quote:

Damien Rushe, midfeild for Athlone up to this season
(away in Oz at the mo) isnt the tallest either.
Stewie Connolly (Tranmere,Bray, Athlone, Dundalk) was short
enough too as far as I can remember
Nah, that was all a ploy to bring ye down from the inside sfc red.Quote:

I doubt there's a shorter footballer in the league.
I was wondering how long it would take until someone started this thread :)
Derek Glynn is fairly small but there are probably smaller.
Paul Masterson who played for Pats in the early 90s (last seen with wayside I think) was probably the smallest person I've ever seen playing any sport.
"Digger" O'Brien
Chris Kingsberry - he makes Kearney look like a grown- up
Tommy Keane (GUFC Legend in the late 80's early 90's) was tiny. He wasn't much over 5ft.
Anyone remember Tommy Byrne, he played one season for us (Sligo Rovers). Now he was small.
Short, but hardly small;)Quote:

:)Yip def the winner I think.Inspired witty Journos to come up with "Defender xxx had masterson in his pocket.As a kiddie remember him playing up front with the talented Fran Hitchock for Home Farm.Quote:

I stand corrected but I think Davy Williamson and the aforementioned Tommy Byrne played together in midfield for Sligo Rovers.Quote:
Davy Cwho used to play for Bray and Bohs was tiny (and brutal !)
I would suggest Brayunknowns that Williamson was the smallest player to ever play football.
Sorry, made a mess of the quote. i'll try again.

Mo Farrell and Franco aint giants but I'm sure that there are others smaller, seeing so much of Clive Delaney has disrupted my ability to judge between tall and small:D
Barry Clancy who plays out left for us. Seriously he is tiny.
Kingsberry.
Ciarán Kavanagh, our record appearance holder, was about 2"3', I think. He still won every header going. Had a year or two at Dundalk winding down his career around 2001.
Was trying to think of the nameQuote:

Eddie McCallion is small, as is Gareth McGlynn
Firstly that was a joke......butQuote:

He clearly wasnt exactly enjoying it....
I think that might have more to do with the fact that he's a bit of a knob though, micls.
Kildare Lad - is Clancy shorter than McCrossan? :eek:
McCrossan is a beast in comparrison!
To "find" himsef. Luckily he managed to find both selves.Quote:
