If they have been handed down from others and are old they may have viral infection(passed by aphids) No cure . Need to replant as strawbs don't last forever.

Correct above, also, they also appear to be (not suffering) but lacking nutrition. You must be a little more vigilant when growing fruit in pots. Mine are all past their prime now and are starting to produce fruit similar to your's, after producing heaps of large and sweet fruit earlier in the year. Mine are grown hydroponically so have all the nutrients at their disposal. The larger the leaves the larger the fruit in my hydro setup.

Thanks Guys, I greatly appreciate your advice.

I will try again with some new plants by replacing most of them. Those that remain I will hit hard with fertiliser and see if they recover. If yes I'll let you know for future reference, watch this space.
Thanks
Again
