Robert Ireland Pryde (25 April 1913 – 30 June 1998) was a Scottish footballer, who played for East Fife, St Johnstone and Blackburn Rovers. He also appeared as a guest player for West Ham United later in World War II.[3]

In the summer of 1949, he joined Wigan Athletic as a player-manager. During the 1949–50 season, he played 22 games and scored two goals in the Lancashire Combination as the club finished as the league's runners-up. He decided to end his playing career before the start of the following season, and went on to win the league title as manager. He left the club in January 1952.[4]
