Now very much in the latter stages of his career, he joined Motherwell for the 1924/25 season as the side were hoping to improve upon the 10th place finish of the last campaign. More or less a fringe player, William would only make 14 appearances as the side stuttered in the league and drab performances seen them finish in a lowly 3rd bottom position. The club had finished on the same points as Third Lanark and Ayr United below them, but thankfully ‘Wells goal difference saved them from relegation. On 4th October 1924 Cringan netted his one and only goal against Hearts at Tynecastle, the game finished 2-2. After Motherwell William had a brief stint with Third Lanark before retiring. He died 12th May 1958.
