	Gary Croft Squad Number: 20 Height: 5.9 Weight: 11.8 Date of birth: 17/02/1974 Place of birth: Burton-on-Trent Position: Left-sided defender Nationality: English Transfer Fee: Free Signed: 05/08/2005 Under Contract: End of 2007-08
Previous Clubs: Blackburn Ipswich Wigan (l) Cardiff Nickname(s): Crofty League Two Class: Spent most of his career in the top two divisions. His first time at this level. Fishy Verdict: Quality defender/midfielder in his second spell at the club. Left Grimsby in 1996 for £1.7m, only to return after nine years following a lengthy knee injury sustained when at Cardiff. Showed his class on a number of occasions in his first season back, just needs to re-find his consistency and try and avoid injury.
