Bellotti had to be the shortest keeper I’ve seen. Wasn’t he about 5’9”?
Les Green former Derby County keeper has that honour for me who was only 5’8” apparently 😉.
I give you Steve Death of Reading. 5'7. 537 first team appearances including 156 consecutive games. In the 1978-79 season Death went 1,074 minutes without conceding a goal, an English league record that stood for over 30 years until broken by Edwin van der Sar in 2009.

That's some record. A few ex Charlton players in that line up. Plus the wonderfully named Wayne Wanklyn
