Ambrose Arthur Samson (14 October 1897 – 1980) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Birmingham.[4] He played as a goalkeeper.
Samson was born in Measham, Leicestershire, and began his football career with Measham Town before joining Birmingham in 1922.[1] He made his debut in the First Division on 3 March 1923, deputising for Dan Tremelling in a game at Preston North End which Birmingham won 3–2. Tremelling's form restricted Samson to two appearances that season,[5] at the end of which he returned to non-league football with Burton Town.[1]
The 1939 Register lists Samson as living with his wife, Elsie, in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, and working as a colliery winding engineer.[2] He died in 1980 in Coalville, Leicestershire, at the age of 82.[6]
