Player Profile - Craig Hobson (1st Sep 2009 - 1st Jan 2024)
Craig joined Celtic originally from Kendal Town, for whom he netted 26 goals during the 2008/09 season. His season was curtailed in a match vs Harrogate when he suffered a broken arm. After his return from injury he became a vital part of the team, with his second half of the 11/12 season performance simply stunning, and earning him a move up the pyramid to Stockport County. A loan spell at Lincoln was followed by moves to Chester via Guiseley. In 2018, a spell at Alfreton Town scoring two in his 12 appearances was squeezed between his two spells at Ashton United, from where he re-joins Celtic for the 2019/20 season. After leaving, he joined Clitheroe, Curzon Ashton and Ashton United, before coming back to Celtic for a third spell.
