Thomas Arthur Slater (25 February 1908 – 1976) was an English footballer.

Slater played for Easington Colliery, Murton and Clapton Orient before joining Port Vale in June 1930. He kept a clean sheet on his debut; a 2–0 win over Swansea Town on 11 October 1930 at The Old Recreation Ground, and was the number one keeper until he lost this position to previous favourite Ben Davies in January 1931. He played 14 Second Division games in 1930–31 and six games in 1931–32. He transferred to Watford in August 1932, but was replaced by new signing Jim McLaren after struggling with injuries and later moved on to Vauxhall Motors.
