Northern Football Club was a Scottish football club based at Hyde Park in the Springburn area of Glasgow. The club was briefly a member of the Scottish Football League Second Division.

The club was formed in 1874, although details of their early years are largely unknown. They were founder members of the Scottish Football Alliance in 1891 following a number of teams in leaving the Alliance two years later to form the new Second Division of the Scottish League. 189394 proved to be their sole season in the league, with the club finishing ninth and failing re-election. They returned to the Scottish Alliance but during the course of the 189697 season they were wound up.

Colours: Dark blue & light blue halved shirts, white shorts.
