Vincent "Vince" Matthews (15 January 1896 – 15 November 1950) was an English international footballer. Born in Oxford, Matthews joined Tranmere Rovers from Bolton Wanderers in 1925, and did not miss a match until he was transferred to Sheffield United for £1,000 in 1927. Whilst with United, he earned two caps for England against France and Belgium at the end of the 1927–28 season. Matthews has been described as a "cultured attacking centre half ... well ahead of his time."
