Always good to have players signed up, but then they have to perform to a certain standard. If they fail to deliver the goods in the first season then we are stuck with an underperforming player for another season.



That was my first thought. We have an all new attacking option which has provided brilliant results, but where does that leave Cropper if Efete has signed. You can only play one right back.

Personally I think Cropper is a bigger asset for the club going forward.



With Efete getting a 2 year deal, I assume Cropper has been offered a 1 year deal which, given his injury record over the last couple of years is probably the best he can hope for this season.

Maybe Efete will play further forward as a winger? With Cropper playing behind as full back?

Or we just have 2 right backs as we will need 2 players for every position.

Competition for places is normal and Cropper will know that.

As I said elsewhere Croppers going to know he’s guaranteed being in the 18 man match day squad. With 7 on the bench and 5 possible subs, that throw is a real asset to have off the bench of chasing a game.

Plenty of evidence of players permanently displacing others last season too, if they are able to offer up superior performances to others. Crocombe, Amos and Scannell (up to his injury), plus it’s easy to forget now that Waterfall didn’t start the season first choice.

I see no reason for Cropper to be put out by Efete signing a new deal, and unless he’s got other offers from league clubs offering him a seemingly better chance of a first choice berth then I doubt today’s news will have any bearing on his decision.

Yeah I am very much 'shrug' about effete. I think he's good at some things not so much at others, wouldn't have bothered me if he'd left. He is good in the air for a full back though, maybe the best right back for us would be Cropper throwing to Efete in the box to nod in!

Long throw aside, I'm not convinced Cropper is that good defensively or offensively. If he stays as back-up then I'm happy enough, but I wouldn't be that bothered if he left.

The only ones I'm really hoping will stay now are Harry and Ryan Taylor and maybe Amos. The rest who have been offered renewals I'm not too bothered either way.

Bit unfair on Cropper I think, especially when he’d been out for a while when he signed but slotted straight in. Didn’t let us down and did well against some strong wingers.

When did we last have a right-back who scored 4 goals whilst at the same time missing a decent chunk of the season?
