text: # Jackie Cox (footballer)
  
  John Cox (1911 – 17 September 1990) was a Scottish football player and manager. He served Hamilton Academical (where he spent the majority of his playing career, making over 200 appearances in the right half position), Ayr United and St Mirren (the latter as a World War II guest) as both player and manager. He also had a short spell in English football with Preston North End, and after the conflict ended he finished his career with Stranraer.
  
  His cousin Sammy Cox was also a footballer who played at international level for Scotland and at club level for Rangers; while manager at Hamilton, he signed his nephew – also John/Jackie – for the club, although the younger Cox made only one league appearance for Accies (he also featured for Stranraer, and briefly for Kilmarnock).
