Patrick Allan (20 September 1892 – 15 July 1955) was a Scottish footballer who played as a forward, primarily for Clyde.[3] Having joined the club in late 1911 from a team in Perth[4] (details are not well documented) he was quickly involved in the run to the 1912 Scottish Cup Final but did not take part in Clyde's defeat to Celtic; however, he was in the side which claimed the Glasgow Cup in the 1914–15 season.[5] In a career interrupted by World War I, Allan played for Scotland in one unofficial wartime international match.[6]
