Andrew Hair Holm (4 November 1859 – 8 January 1934) was a Scottish footballer who played for Queen's Park[3] and Scotland.

He won the Scottish Cup in 1881, 1882 and 1884 (the latter a walkover) and was selected for the Glasgow select team in addition to three international caps,[2] but quit the game aged 24 to pursue business interests[4] – he worked as a distiller, and became a director of the company which produced White Horse whisky.[2]

His elder brother John also played for Queen's Park,[5] as well as for Corinthian in England.[6]
