PLAYER PROFILE - SAM COX

From Elmore v Frome programme 1995. 

Sam first played football for Bridge Club in 1984 before she moved a couple of seasons later to Exeter Rangers. She now plays regularly in the defence as centre half or sweeper, roughly translated this means that she could be classed as General Dogsbody!

Sam has always loved playing football and her boyfriend Matthew also helps Sam with her game giving her extra coaching when she gets home (usually a run down on what she should have done before that goal went in the net!).

Sam supports Manchester Utd. Her favourite players are Steve Bruce and Paul McGrath. She enjoys listening to the Pet Shop Boys, U2, Culture Beat and Queen and when socialising enjoys a Pizza and a Lucozade (although I have seen her drink something stronger if she's persuaded!).

Sam's most memorable game was played at Exeter City's St James Park when Exeter Rangers played Pelynt in a cup final in May 1989 where Sam scored two goals and missed a sitter but lost 3-2.

Sam's football dislikes are being sent off when its not your fault - this is probably due to the worst ever moment Sam had when she was sent off for pretending to be the goalkeeper in the 92-93 season against Bristol.

Sam hasn't really got any ambitions in life but when asked "what do you want to be when you grow up?" Sam answered "a tomato" which may mean Sam is still really a big kid at heart!
