Samuel Anderson was a Scottish professional footballer who played as an inside left.
Career
Anderson played for Hamilton Academical, Bradford City and Third Lanark. For Bradford City, he made 14 appearances in the Football League and two in the FA Cup. 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.
