Ditto - one of the few to play 200+ games for the Os.

Good luck, Craig

Good luck, Craig
Not the greatest player to play for the O’s but he always gave 100% and at the very least fans demand effort if not talent.
Good Luck Craig.

Wish him well. Always gave 100% for the Os and played in a variety of positions when needed. I pretty sure he slotted in at RWB once!

He also really stepped up in the first season back in League 2 making himself a deserved first teamer.

Best pointer-moaner the club has had since Steven Purchase.

Other than Bonne and Koroma and Jobi and Coulson and Marvin (think that’s it?), totally agree.

Craig was an absolute warrior the year we were promoted from the Conference. He’s a bit of a legend imho.

Arguably the most successful Orient player ever, having played in 2 Championship winning teams from the National League in 2019 (42(1) apps) and League 2 in 2023.(10(22) apps) Sam Sargeant, Shadrack Ogie and Ruel Sotiriou were also in both squads although none made an appearance in 2018/19 and Sam made only 1 appearance in 2023.

He made a lot more tackles than Purches ever did. The only player who could run fifty yards backwards and fail to make a tackle. Good luck Craig, great servant to The O’s.

Your average footballer is as thick as your average fan.

Clay was so good we had to stick a winger in midfield to shore up our problem area.

The confidence you have to consistently talk bollocks is admirable.

Think this is the guy he’s been brought in to replace.

What about Dan Happe?

Or Sid Bishop & Phil White, whose two promotions were both at much higher levels?
