About Sammy Cox
COX COMPLETED THE IRON CURTAIN DEFENCE. THOUGH A NATURALLY LEFT-SIDED PLAYER, HE WAS COMFORTABLE IN EITHER BERTH AT FULL BACK OR WING HALF.
During his time at Ibrox he even played inside forward and once at outside left and he also appeared for a Scotland side at inside forward against France in Paris in 1948.
He had good technical ability and a quick football brain which gave him a tremendous positional sense.
