Playing career
Born in Jarrow, Crawford started his professional career with Hull City, before signing for Chelsea for £3,000 in May 1923. He quickly became a regular in the side for the next five years, and after several near-misses, eventually helped them gain promotion back to the First Division in 1929-30. Thereafter, the ageing Crawford was overshadowed by new star signings like Hughie Gallacher and Alex Jackson, and joined Queens Park Rangers in 1934. He made 308 appearances for Chelsea, scoring 28 goals.
International career
Crawford was capped once for England, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2-0 loss to Scotland at Hampden Park on 28 March 1931.
