RIP Ken, and thank you for helping to nurture my Albion support.

An integral part of our rise in the 70s.

RIP

I hate it when people who were an integral part of my youth pass away, makes me feel old and question my own mortality.

RIP

Worked as a scout for Nobby through most of his managerial career.

RIP Ken.

They were wonderful years to be a kid following the Albion, he was vital to the success.

I only knew “Ken Craggs” as a bloke in a tracksuit on a poster on my bedroom wall.

He was an important part of a great era for the Albion so all respect to him and condolences to his family.

 

[Lenny Rider]

A real character, when he came back to help Nobby at Gillingham he coined the Viz like nickname, “Ken Craggs and his 40 fags”

RIP.

RiP Mr Craggs, thought Alan Mullery might have paid tribute in the website article ?

Played a huge part in our promotion to the old Div 1 as Mullerys number 2 with Gary Stephens saying he was a footballing father figure, Ken later scouted for the Albion working under Brian Horton RIP thoughts and prayers to his family and all who knew him

In between doing his scouting activities for the Albion, he did some part-time driving work for a local taxi company and I was fortunate enough for Ken to give me a lift to the airport a few times. He was a lovely guy and we had some great conversations about the Albion at that time. RIP Ken, a very nice man.
