Robert "Bobby" Thomson (born 21 March 1955) is a Scottish former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
Glasgow-born Thomson began his League career with St Johnstone and would spend five years at the club before moving to Greenock Morton.
[4] Thomson played 78 games for Hibs, but he was banned for six months after an incident with a linesman during a match against St Johnstone in 1983.
Thomson joined Blackpool in August 1985, at a time when the club was about to embark on something of a revival under the management of Sam Ellis.
"Thomson's aggression and experience will stiffen competition in the attack," said Ellis of the signing.
