John "Jock" Paterson (1926 – 14 January 2000) was a footballer, who played for Hibernian and Ayr United.[1][3]

Paterson went three consecutive seasons without missing a league game for Hibs and he played in every game of the championship winning 1951–52 season.[4] Paterson played for the Scottish Football League XI in the following season, in a 3–0 defeat by a Welsh select team.[2] He was unable to play for the Scotland national football team due to his English birthplace.[5]

His son, Craig Paterson, also played for Hibernian.[5] Paterson died in January 2000; a moment's silence was observed in his memory at the next Hibs home match.[6]
