Robert Frame "Bobby" Main (10 February 1909 - 30 March 1985) was a Scottish professional football player who is best known for his time with Rangers.

Main began his career at local team Baillieston Juniors and joined Rangers in 1929, initially as understudy to Sandy Archibald. He was in and out of the side for four years before becoming a regular in 1933.
