Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on July 21, 1982)

Happy Birthday, Ian Craney! From your dazzling debut with Altrincham back in 2001 to proudly representing England C on the international stage, you've always shown midfield mastery. Your footwork was smoother than birthday cake icing and your passes sweeter than any celebratory dessert.

Even though defenders might still have nightmares about chasing you around the pitch, we hope today you're chased only by good times and laughter. May this year bring as much joy as those unforgettable moments when fans cheered loudly for every brilliant move you made—because let's face it: legends like yourself never go out of style!
