He played as a wing half or centre half.[2][3] CareerPreston was born in Edinburgh and signed for Heart of Midlothian from Bathgate F.C. shortly before the First World War.[4] In November 1914 he was among the Hearts players who volunteered to join Sir George McCrae's new battalion of the Royal Scots. Military service took him away from Edinburgh for five years, so it was 1919 before he made his debut for Hearts in the Scottish League First Division. He remained with the club until the 1922–23 season. Preston then came to England to play for Torquay United,[5] then a Southern League club, and moved on to Third Division South club Plymouth Argyle in 1923. He made 147 appearances for the club in all competitions. His last game for Argyle came at the end of the 1927–28 season, and he returned to Torquay United, by then a Football League team, for the following season.[3][6] After retiring from playing he moved to Ireland and became a publican. He died in 1945.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite book |last=Alexander|first=Jack |title=McCrae's Battalion: The Story of the 16th Royal Scots|year=2004|publisher=Mainstream Publishing/Random House |isbn=9781845968212}} {{Sligo Rovers F.C. managers}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Preston, Bob}}{{Scotland-footy-defender-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.londonhearts.com/scores/players/prestonrobert.html |title=Hearts player Bob Preston |publisher=London Hearts Supporters Club |accessdate=10 April 2017}} 3. ^1 {{cite book |last=Joyce |first=Michael |title=Football League Players' Records 1888 to 1939 |publisher=SoccerData (Tony Brown) |location=Nottingham |year=2004 |page=212 |isbn=978-1-899468-67-6}} 4. ^{{cite book |last=Purdie|first=Tom |title=Hearts: The Supreme Sacrifice to Hearts at War|year=2014|publisher=Amberley Publishing |isbn=9781445633343}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://londonhearts.com/scores/spics/1922-2303.htm |title=1922–23 |publisher=London Hearts Supporters Club |accessdate=18 August 2010}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.greensonscreen.co.uk/gosdb-players2.asp?pid=669&scp=1,2,3,4,5,6,7 |title=Bob Preston |publisher=Greens on Screen |accessdate=18 August 2010}} 20 : Year of birth missing|1945 deaths|Date of death missing|Sportspeople from Edinburgh|Scottish footballers|Association football defenders|Heart of Midlothian F.C. players|Torquay United F.C. players|Plymouth Argyle F.C. players|Scottish Football League players|Royal Scots soldiers|Southern Football League players|English Football League players|Bathgate F.C. players|Place of death missing|Sligo Rovers F.C. managers|League of Ireland managers|Scottish football managers|British military personnel of World War I|McCrae's Battalion |
