Croft was a superb player for Town but that was in his first spell that pre-dated the Fishy. As a No.20 he was tidy, effective and steady.  I think I'm right in saying Slade originally brought him back as a holding midfielder before he ended up as cover at full-back for both Macca and Newey.  Definitely not the attack-minded full-back from his first spell. Arnold all day for me.  Some great goals and even better memories.

Probably has to be Crofty who was a great servant, but Nathan Arnold will always be a but special to us I suspect. Exactly how I see it too , Croft (just) Grimsby and proud!

I don't remember much of Crofty's second spell as I won't have seen him that often. So I'm going for Nathan Arnold who has a special place at this club, not just for THAT goal. Through the door there came familiar laughter, I saw your face and heard you call my name. Oh my friend we're older but no wiser, For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
