John Paul Potter (born 15 December 1979 in Dunfermline), is a Scottish defender. currently playing for St. Mirren. Potter began his career at Celtic, but failed to make a senior appearance for them.

Potter made his debut on the same night he joined Clyde, in an evening fixture against rivals Partick Thistle. At the beginning of the 2004-2005 season, Potter was appointed captain of Clyde, and started every single game for Clyde that season.
