no-nonsense defending and ability on the ball. "‘Janny’ also showed an eye for goal, finding the net 11 times over his 153 appearances – with a couple of Goal of the Season contenders
in the shape of outstanding strikes against Montrose and Alloa Athletic. "As a model professional, a positive influence in the dressing room, and a consistently reliable squad member
during a successful period for the club, we wish Craig the very best of luck with whatever comes next in his football career. He will always be welcomed with open arms at the club he served
with such distinction. All the best, Janny!"
