| Frank Robertson |
 Frank Robertson was probably born in the mid-1870s, and is most likely to be Scottish. * The midfielder joined for Thistle for a trial period in May, 1894, having most recently played in the junior grade. He made his first known appearance on Saturday, 19th May, 1894, in a 3-0 friendly defeat at home to Dumbarton. He made his second and last-known appearance on Wednesday, 13th June, 1894, in a 5-4 defeat at home to Govan Select in a benefit match. His known club-list includes only Partick Thistle. We don't know where or when Frank died. *

 Thistle tried a few local juniors in their end-of-season friendly at home to Dumbarton on 19th May 1894. The Scottish Referee opined: “Partick Thistle should keep their eye on Frank Robertson. On Saturday he played splendidly, his height being of great service.” A few weeks later, the same player got a run-out in the annual charity match at Inchview for the benefit of the Whiteinch Orphanage. Whatever his individual merits, 2 defeats with 8 goals conceded would have done his prospects no good. |
