Robert Robertson was a Scottish footballer whose only club at the professional level was St Mirren, where he spent eleven seasons (all in the Scottish Football League's top division),[1] making 296 appearances for the Buddies in the two major competitions and scoring 18 goals.

[2] His position was mainly as a centre half,[3] although early in his career he was an inside forward before displacing the established 'pivot' Walter Bruce; he took part in the 1903 Glasgow Merchants Charity Cup final[4] and the 1908 Scottish Cup Final,[5] both of which St Mirren lost heavily to Celtic (5–2 and 5–1 respectively).

After retiring as a player, he served the Paisley club as a director.

[6][7] Robertson was selected once for the Scottish Football League XI against the Irish League XI in 1909.
