William "Billy" Langham (1876–1927) was an English-born footballer who played as an outside right in the Football League around the turn of the 19th century.

He played for Notts County in the late 1890s scoring 15 times in 47 appearances for them before playing for Bristol City and Leicester Fosse. He joined Doncaster Rovers for their first season in the Football League scoring 16 goals in the 65 League and Cup games he played for them over two seasons.
