Samuel Anderson was a Scottish professional footballer who played as an inside left.[1][2]

Career

Anderson played for Hamilton Academical, Bradford City and Third Lanark.[3] For Bradford City, he made 14 appearances in the Football League and two in the FA Cup.[4] World War I then intervened, and Anderson was loaned back to Scottish clubs, spending two seasons with Airdrieonians and one back at Hamilton. After the conflict he returned home on a permanent basis with Third Lanark, later going out on loan again, this time to lower division teams as his career wound down.
