William Cleland "Tally" Sneddon (1 April 1914 – April 1995) sometimes known as Billy Sneddon, was a Scottish professional football wing half and manager who played in the Football League for Brentford, Newport County and Swansea Town. He began his senior career in Scotland with Falkirk.
A wing half, Sneddon began his career in junior football with Wishaw Juniors and Rutherglen Glencairn. He began his senior career with Scottish League Division One club Falkirk in December 1935, making 36 league appearances and scoring eight goals before departing in June 1937.
Sneddon moved to England to join Division One side Brentford in a £4,000 deal prior to the start of the 1937–38 season, as a replacement for Welsh international Dai Richards. He quickly established himself in the side, making 44 appearances during the season. Sneddon found game-time harder to come by during the 1938–39 season, making 27 appearances and scoring two goals. He left Griffin Park at the end of the campaign, having made 70 appearances and scored two goals in his two seasons with the Bees.
