V. Thomas Wilson White (September 1896 – 1960) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Birmingham and Newport County.[1] He played as a full back.

White was born in West Bromwich, Staffordshire. He joined Birmingham in March 1918,[2] and played a few games in the wartime leagues.[3] He made his debut in the Second Division on 26 October 1919, in a 1–0 defeat at home to West Ham United,[4] deputising for Billy Ball who had been injured playing for England in a Victory international.[5] White, described as a "slow, cumbersome defender who relied on the big clearance", lost any hope of a first-team place with the arrival of Jack Jones in the 1920 close season, and he left for Worksop Town in January 1921.[2][6] He contributed to their Midland League title in 1922,[7] and earned himself a return to the Football League with Newport County later that year.[2] White made 44 appearances in the Third Division South for Newport before finishing off his career with Kidderminster Harriers of the Birmingham & District League.[1]

White died in Wednesbury, Staffordshire, in 1960 aged about 63.
