Cox has scored 14 times this term, including two League One hat-tricks

Swindon striker Simon Cox has been named as the League One player of the month for October by the Professional Footballers' Association.

Cox beat Fabian Delph and Jermaine Beckford, both of Leeds, and Brighton's Glenn Murray to win the award.

The 21-year-old has scored 14 goals this season and netted a treble on Saturday against Scunthorpe United.

Cox joined Swindon from local rivals Reading and signed a permanent deal with the club in January.
