Gordon Haigh (18 August 1921 – 22 August 2011) was an English professional footballer who played as an inside forward.

Having played 18 league games for Burnley in the four league seasons after World War II, he was the club's second oldest surviving player by the time of his death on 22 August 2011, four days after his 90th birthday – second only to George Knight, who was three months older and died 10 days later.
