Charles Thomson Craig (11 July 1874 – 11 January 1933) was a Scottish professional footballer who played as a full-back.

He then returned to Dundee for another four seasons but only rarely featured for the first team,[4] 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][5] Craig made his debut for the Ironworks in an FA Cup third qualifying round match against Dartford on 28 October 1899.

[5] 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.

[1][7] He moved on to Football League First Division club Nottingham Forest in 1902,[8] where he spent periods partnering both James Iremonger and Walter Dudley, and played in both full-back positions.

[5] Craig, who was 13 stone (180 lb; 83 kg) and 6 ft 1 in (1.85 m), had been described 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".
