He played for the new club for a season, making 13 appearances, before moving to Dundee Wanderers, where he made eight appearances. He then returned to Dundee for another four seasons, before moving to the East End of London, first joining Silvertown, then Southern League First Division club Thames Ironworks, where he played in the club's final season before they were wound up and reformed as West Ham United.[2][4] Craig made his debut for the Ironworks in an FA Cup third qualifying round match against Dartford on 28 October 1899. During his initial season with the club, he made 18 Southern League appearances, including an end-of-season test match against Fulham, as well as six appearances in the Thames & Medway Combination and four in the FA Cup.[4] He had played in a number of positions over the course of the season before he settled as a left-back.[1] In that position, he formed a partnership with future Hammers manager Syd King.[4] Craig played in West Ham's first ever match, against Gravesend United on 1 September 1900, which ended in a 7–0 victory for the new club.[5] He remained at the club for two seasons, making 60 appearances in league and cup.[1][6] He moved on to Football League First Division club Nottingham Forest in 1902, where he spent periods partnering both James Iremonger and Walter Dudley, and played in both full-back positions.[7] In 1905, he travelled with Forest on their tour of Argentina and Uruguay.[8][9] In all, he spent five seasons and made 136 League appearances at Forest.[2] He then returned to the Southern League with Bradford Park Avenue in 1907–08 and was part of the team that were elected to the Football League for the following season. He made only six appeararances that season, however, before joining Southern League Norwich City.[4] Craig spent the next two seasons at Norwich, then moved on to Southend United for the 1910–11 season. He then joined Welsh club Merthyr Town, who were at that time competing in the Southern League Second Division, and was part of the team that achieved promotion to the First Division in 1911–12. He played for the club for a further two seasons before retiring from football in April 1914. Craig had made over 400 appearances for his various clubs.[4] Style of playCraig, who was {{convert|13|st}} and {{height|ft=6|in=1}}, had been descibed as a "genial, good natured giant" by a contemporary journalist, and also as "one of the most scrupulously fair players it would be possible to find".[1][4] Outside footballWhen Craig moved to London, he worked as a mechanic at the Tate & Lyle sugar refinery in Silvertown.[1] He lived in Tate Road, opposite the refinery. He then found work as a marine engine fitter at the Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company and played for the company's works team.[4] He also had some success as an athlete, winning medals in track events.[4] During World War I, Craig served with the mechanical section of the Royal Army Service Corps. He was stationed at Bulwell Hall, as were a number of other local sportsmen. Following his demobilisation, he ran a billiard hall in the centre of Nottingham.[7] In later life, Craig lived in West Bridgford in Nottinghamshire. He died in his home, aged 58, on 11 January 1933. He had been ill for several months and his death was described as "not unexpected". He left a widow, a son and a daughter.[7][10] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book |last=Hogg |first=Tony |title=Who's Who of West Ham United |year=2005 |publisher=Profile Sports Media| isbn=1 903135 50 8 |pages=55}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite book| first=Michael| last=Joyce| title=Football League Players' Records 1888 to 1939| year=2012| orig-year=2002| publisher=SoccerData| location=Nottingham| isbn=978-1-905891-61-0| page=59}} 3. ^{{Cite web |title=Charity Cup Matches |work=Dundee's Footballing Victorians |accessdate=19 November 2018 |url= https://sites.google.com/site/dpc1893/competitions/charity-cup-matches}} 4. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite book | title=Iron in the Blood | publisher=SoccerData | last=Powles| first=John | year=2005 | location=Nottingham | isbn=1 899468 22 6| url=http://www.soccer.mistral.co.uk/books/iron.htm| pages=89-90}} 5. ^{{Cite web |title=Charles CRAIG ...
