George Robertson (20 April 1930 – 23 March 2003) was a Scottish footballer who played as a defender.

Born in Falkirk, Robertson began his career with Junior club Gairdoch Juniors. He signed for Plymouth Argyle after he played in a trial match while based in Salisbury with the RAF. He made his first team debut in 1951 and was a regular in the side for the next decade, initially as a centre back and then as a full back; his favoured position. Towards the end of his career he joined Falmouth Town as player-manager.

Robertson then returned to Plymouth to become a groundsman at Plymouth College, and then as a member of the staff at Home Park. He ran the club's youth hostel, before being appointed as groundsman in the 1980s. In later life, Robertson became a milkman.

Robertson died in Plymouth on 23 March 2003, at the age of 72.
