He was capped by Wales at international level.[2] CareerHibernianAlthough he was born in north Wales, Atherton grew up in Scotland.[3] After spells with Dalry Primrose and Hearts,[3][4] Atherton signed for Hibs at the start of the 1897–98 season.[3] Atherton was a versatile player who could play in a number of positions in midfield and the forward line.[3] He won his first cap for Wales in a 1899 British Home Championship match against Ireland, and he also played against England that year.[3] Atherton captained the Hibs side that won the 1902 Scottish Cup,[3] a competition that Hibs did not win again until 2016.[11] Hibs' 1–0 win against Celtic in the Cup Final was thanks in part to Atherton deceiving the Celtic defence by shouting for them to "leave the ball" in a Glasgow accent.[11][13] The Celtic defence duly complied, which allowed Andy McGeachen to score the only goal of the game.[5][6] He then captained the Hibs side that won the 1903 league championship, the first in the club's history. He also played in all of Wales' matches in the 1903 British Home Championship.[3] MiddlesbroughAtherton was transferred to Middlesbrough in 1903 and he became the first Middlesbrough player to win international honours.[3] He also scored his two international goals while with Middlesbrough. The first was in a 1–1 draw with Scotland at Dens Park,[7][8] and the second was in a 2–2 draw against Ireland during his 9th and last international appearance.[9] Atherton made 66 appearances in all for Middlesbrough and became club captain.[10] Later life and deathAtherton retired from playing football after a short spell with Chelsea and he subsequently moved back to Edinburgh, becoming a steward in the Merchant Navy.[3] Atherton was presumed dead in October 1917 after his ship, the SS Britannia, disappeared without trace in the North Sea,[11] either due to a mine or enemy action.[3][12] He is commemorated on the Tower Hill Memorial.[13] References1. ^{{Cite book|title = Football League Players' Records 1888 to 1939|last = Joyce|first = Michael|publisher = Tony Brown|year = 2012|isbn = 190589161X|location = Nottingham|page = 12}} 2. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20110526114241/http://www.iffhs.de/?3f4b05ffcd85bcca952bda55205fdcdc3bfcdc0aec70aeeda01f Interesting and curious facts about full internationals and national players (1901–1910)], IFFHS. 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Bobby Atherton, Hibernian Historical Trust. 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.londonhearts.com/scores/players/athertonrobert.html|title=Robert Atherton – Hearts Career – from 23 May 1895 to 26 Apr 1897|website=www.londonhearts.com|access-date=9 June 2018}} 5. ^1 2 {{Cite news |url=https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/edinburgh-s-real-disgrace-hibs-have-not-won-the-cup-since-buffalo-bill-was-in-town-1-1288221 |title=Edinburgh's real disgrace?
