Notes: Craig was brought in by Bobby Williamson during the close season of 2000 but due to his age we had to fork out a reputed £100,000 in compensation because he was under 23. The former U21 Scottish internationalist (with ten caps) had a good scoring record at Raith and, when eventually given a sustained run in the first team, continued that form for us. His Killie career has been hampered by injuries but he will always be remember for the fantastic goal he scored against St Mirren in the League Cup Semi final at a rain soaked Hampden in February 2001. Craig is a nippy wee striker who knows where the net is but needs first team football to return to the top of his game. He won the inaugural killiefc.com player of the year in 2000-01, just sneaking it from Freddie Dindeleux on the last day.
