Johnny Graham (born 30 December 1947) was a Scottish footballer who played for Dumbarton.[2]

Graham began his footballing career with Arthurlie juniors in 1967, before being snapped up by Dumbarton in February 1968. From then on he was a permanent fixture in the Dumbarton midfield for 10 years, before being released in 1977. He was part of the Division 2 Championship winning side of 1971-72 and played a total of 385 games for Dumbarton, still a record for the club.

Following his release from Dumbarton, Graham joined Renfrew Juniors for a short period before moving to Rutherglen Glencairn in 1978. Whilst there, he won 6 Scotland Junior International Caps, and retired in 1984 whilst playing with Johnstone Burgh.

Shortly before his death in 2022, Graham was inducted into the Dumbarton hall of fame.
