Craig Ireland
Date of Birth: 29-11-1975
Position: Central Defender
Joined: 24-02-1996
Appearances: 51
Substitute Appearances: 9
Goals: 2
Nationality: Scottish
Previous Clubs: Aberdeen
Subsequent Clubs: Dundee, Airdrieonians
Began his career at Aberdeen but after making just one League Cup appearance for the Dons` first team, 20 year old Craig was signed by Bert Paton in February 1996 for a fee of £75,000. Competing with the likes of Andy Tod, Dave Barnett and Steve Welsh for a place in the centre of defence, Craig found it hard to command a regular slot.
By the start of season 1999-2000, Craig was relegated to the bench and undoubtedly unhappy at that prospect, Craig opted to go on loan to Dundee in October 1999, a move that was confirmed by a £50,000 transfer to Dens Park.
That move turned out to be less than successful and Craig joined Airdrieonians and then Notts County on loan, with a permanent move to the latter confirmed in 2001. Craig also enjoyed spells at Barnsley, Peterborough and Bristol City in England before finishing his career back in Scotland with Falkirk.
