Tony Andrew Craig (born 20 April 1985) is an English footballer who plays for Brentford.
Career
Born in Greenwich, London, Craig initially came through the youth ranks at Millwall, and made his Lions debut away at Nottingham Forest late in the 2002-03 season.
He had a short loan spell at Wycombe Wanderers midway through the 2004-05 season, before returning to Millwall.
At the start of the 2007-08 season, however, Craig signed a three-year contract with neighbours Palace, although an injury limited his chances there. On 27 March 2008 Craig rejoined his former club Millwall on an emergency loan deal. He was recalled by Palace a month later to be involved in Palace's run in to the season and play-offs, before joining the Millwall for a third spell in the summer. Millwall re-signed Craig from Palace for an undisclosed fee.
On 24 November 2011, Craig signed on loan with League One side Leyton Orient until 31 December,[2] but was recalled three days early after four Orient appearances, due to injuries in the Millwall squad.[3]
Craig joined Brentford on 13 July 2012 for an undisclosed fee on a three-year contract.[4]
