Goal Sizes

 

You couldn't change them.

Take the Japanese, Koreans and other countries where people tend to be smaller. This would put their teams at a disadvantage, so FIFA would never agree.

Years ago there was a goalkeeper who played for Brentford called Gerry Cakebread. He was very small. And good!

Gerry Cakebread is in fact 6 ft 1. Don't know how tall you are, but that's pretty big to me...

But I agree that he was very good...

And no, he's not paying me...
