Samuel Fleming was a Scottish footballer who played as an inside right, primarily for Hibernian where he played regularly six seasons from 1911 and 1917;[1] he took part in the 1914 Scottish Cup Final which Hibs lost to Celtic after a replay.[2][3]
After a year of being registered with Hibernian but without playing for them (the absence possibly relating to World War I commitments) he signed St Mirren, but only stayed there for a matter of weeks, making one Scottish Football League appearance before moving on to Clyde.[4] He remained at Shawfield for four years and was part of a team defeated in a final by Celtic for a second time, this time in the Glasgow Cup of 1920.[5] Fleming signed for Albion Rovers in 1922, and after seemingly having retired two years later, he made another single appearance for a Renfrewshire-based club, this time third-tier Johnstone, in 1926.[4]
