From Mr L Breimer
Sir: Seeing that the average male Briton has grown five inches since 1900, let the FA increase the internal measurement of the goal for senior matches by at least the same for the crossbar and each of the uprights, unless they can show that the average height of goalkeepers has remained constant.
