Leamon Robinson Newcomb (28 November 1903 – 3 July 1964), known as Lem Newcomb, was an English footballer who played as a right half in the Football League for Darlington, Millwall and Southport. He was on the books of Middlesbrough without playing League football for them, and also played non-league football for Stillington Juniors, Stockton Malleable Institute and Sittingbourne.

In 1960, he took over as manager of Southport. Ill-health forced his retirement in March 1964, and he died on 3rd July of that year.

Notes

Figure excludes three appearances in the abandoned 1939–40 Football League season, which Joyce's Football League Players' Records includes although most records do not.
