Robert Beveridge (24 June 1877 – 11 October 1901) was a Scottish footballer who played as a centre forward in the Football League for Everton and Nottingham Forest.[2][3]
He came into consideration for an international cap at the age of 20 while with Third Lanark, taking part in one of the trial matches in 1898,[4] but this did not lead on to selection for Scotland. He died of phthisis pulmonalis (tuberculosis) aged 24.[5]
