Alexander "Sandy" Young was a Scottish professional footballer.
He is the all-time fourth highest scorer for English club Everton and scored the only goal to win the 1906 FA Cup Final. He was also the Football League's top scorer in 1906–07.
The place, date and circumstances of his death are unclear. Either he was hanged for sheep-rustling in Australia or died in an Edinburgh asylum, accused of manslaughter.
