Robert "Bobby" Carmichael Mitchell (July 19, 1924 – April 8, 1993) was a Scottish football player. His position was forward.
Mitchell started his career with Third Lanark in 1942, spending seven years with the "Hi-Hi" before joining Newcastle United for £16,000 in February 1949.[cite book | last = Lamming | first = Douglas | title = A Scottish Soccer Internationalists Who’s Who, 1872-1986 | format = Hardback | publisher = Hutton Press | year = 1987 | id = (ISBN 0-907033-47-4) ] He played for the "Magpies" from 1949 to 1961, becoming something of a cult hero amongst supporters who nicknamed him 'Dazzler'. He was an instrumental part of the team that experienced much success in the 1950s, winning three FA Cups in a five year period. He made a total of 408 appearances for the club, scoring 95 goals.]After leaving Newcastle, Mitchell spent one season with Berwick Rangers before returning to Tyneside as player-manager of Gateshead.
Mitchell won two caps for the Scotland national team, and scored on his debut against Denmark in 1951. He also twice represented the Scottish Football League representative team.
