George Walter Anderson (born 25 May 1891 in Cheetham, Manchester; died 1959, buried in Blackley Cemetery) was an English footballer.
Anderson was a forward with Manchester United whose career started in 1911.
Anderson went on to score 39 goals for United, and scored another 39 unofficial goals during the First World War. Anderson was involved in a match fixing scandal that ended his career.
In a game at Old Trafford on 29 December 1917 against Burnley, he was accused of fixing the match after three United players complained to the team president.
He was then banned from Old Trafford on 8 January 1918 and later sentenced to eight months in prison after his trial in Liverpool.
In 1915, Anderson had already testified during the investigation of the 1915 British football betting scandal, which led to the banning of seven Manchester United and Liverpool players.
