Samuel Morrow (born March 3, 1985 in Derry, Northern Ireland), aka Sam Morrow or Sammy Morrow, is a professional football player, currently playing for Derry City F.C. in the FAI League of Ireland. Morrow, who was raised in Limavady, began his career at Ipswich Town, but was released in 2004. He was one of a number of former Ipswich youngsters, including Chris Hogg and Antonio Murray, who were signed by former Ipswich coach Tony Mowbray for Hibernian while Mowbray was Hibs manager.[1] Morrow only started eight matches in his first season with Hibs, but proved to be useful as a substitute, scoring goals in wins over Dundee and Dundee United.
Morrow failed to command a regular place at Hibs, however, and he was loaned to Livingston during the 2005-06 season. This loan spell at Livingston was a relative success until he suffered cruciate ligament damage in April 2006. He started a further loan spell, with Partick Thistle, in March 2007. At the end of the 2006-07 season Morrow was given a free transfer by Hibs, and he subsequently signed for Derry City.[2]
In 2008 he scored a hat-trick in the Eircom FAI Legaue Cup final, and was named man of the match, when Derry beat Wexford Youths 6-1, to win the competition for the 9th time.[3]
