Bobby Craig was a seasoned professional when he came to Celtic in October 1962 from Blackburn Rovers.

The former Third Lanark and Sheffield Wednesday man was a cultured inside-right who made his Bhoys debut in the first European tie to ever be played at Celtic Park as the Hoops drew 2-2 with Valencia in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup.

He impressed that night and in his early games for Celtic he showcased his playmaking talents with some aplomb.

However the winter months of early 1963 saw Bobby’s form take a serious dive and the once assured and elegant performer was now looking somewhat slow and cumbersome. After 21 appearances and 13 goals Bobby was transferred to St Johnstone in August 1963 in a swap deal which saw Robert Young head the other way.
