I think you need to be at least 6' these days not to be seen as a short arse.

I am 5'10" and a wee bit. 

I would say 5'10" and a wee bit is just about right.

I was the same, I'm at 12.5 stone now and they say that I can get away with going up to 12.7, but with my football season over I'll go over that I think

 

I'm 5'11 and if I go below 12 stone people think I have some terrible disease and look too skinny. Been a slob recently so now in a fasting regime to get down to my summer weight.

Surely those nhs weight guides are a lot of shite. I'm 6 foot 3 and it says I could be 10st 4 and still be healthy, I used to be 12 st and people though I was ill.

That has to be bollocks. I'm 5'8 and around 10st give it take and although I'm athletic, I'm still what you'd describe as skinny. Not a hope in hell someone half a foot taller than me can be that weight without looking anorexic.

It is a lot of shite, my lower limit is 8 stone 11 I think. No 30 year old should weigh that little, I remember being just under 10 stone when I was about 19 and I had absolutely no fat or muscle on me whatsoever, If I lost a stone I would be dangerously under weight.

I came to that conclusion a long time ago. So much so that I tell my girlfriend if she were 3 inches taller I wouldn't go out with her. Just as well she doesn't wear heels very often.

But as for joining you, I've no idea what you're referring to, but no thanks!

Its just since i revealed i was 5'8 or a bit less i was getting some comments saying there were no excuses for being that short etc from posters who are 6 foot + and then Bairnardo recently revealed he was also 5'8 and now you in the space of a few days. I don't consider myself as short and always used it to my advantage playing football, shorter players always have good ball control due to the low centre of gravity!
