Thomas "Tom" Pope is a professional English footballer currently playing for Crewe Alexandra. Following an unsuccessful trial at the railwaymen, Pope opted to make his name in the lower leagues with Biddulph Victoria where he scored fifteen goals in his first season with the club and a further twelve in the first two months of the second before signing for Crewe.

Pope spent most of the 2005-06 season on loan to lower league clubs. However, following his trial with Barrow, Pope was named on the substitutes bench for the first time in Crewe's 2-1 away win at Northampton Town.

In March 2007, Pope made his senior debut for Crewe in the team's 1-0 away defeat to Gillingham. The Englishman played a further three games for the club during the rest of the 2006-07 season, all three games ended in defeat.

He finished as second-top scorer for the club in the 2007-08 season behind Nicky Maynard, with 7 goals for his club.
