Robertson represented the Scotland national football team once, in a vital 1962 FIFA World Cup qualifying match against Czechoslovakia.[3] Injuries to Davie Wilson and Alex Scott meant that Robertson and Ralph Brand were brought in for the match, which Scotland had to win to qualify.[3] Despite two goals by Ian St. John, Scotland lost 4–2 after extra time.[3]

Robertson died at his home on 12 March 2010.[4]
