There's been some right Pie-eaters don professional football shirts over the years. Seeing the article on Jon Parkin on the BBC website made me think who might feature in the Fattest Football Team of All Time.
Everyone welcome to nominate their favourite fatster:
GK - Neville Southall
RB
LB - Luke Shaw (think we can do better than this, he's really just big boned)
CB - Razor Ruddock
CB- Stephen McNulty (google images and marvel)
LM - Andy Reid
RM - Sammy Lee
CM - Jan Molby
CM - Jon Parkinson
F - Gary Taylor-Fletcher
F - Micky Quinn
Manager:
Fat Sam Allardice (of course)
First Team Coach:
David Unsworth (not fat enough in his playing days to make the team but has worked hard to pile on the pounds in a coaching role)
Subs:
Kevin Pressman
Tomas Brolin (just dislodged by Quinn, not an easy task)
Andy Morrison (another one to google for images, great suggestion, really fat)
Will edit as I receive suggestions. Players will be replaced if better, fatter alternatives are proposed.

at CB Steve Mcnulty ex luton and Tranmere was the fattest professional player that I've ever seen play.

He looks like he ate his rivals for the position!

Anderson always looked fat for us.
