James Charles "Joe" Lane (11 July 1892 – February 1959) was an English professional footballer who played as a forward.

He made his debut for the club on 22 November 1913, in a 2–2 draw at home to Leeds City, scoring one of Blackpool's goals.

The following season, 1914–15, he was an ever-present in Blackpool's 38 league games and one FA Cup tie.

Despite Lane's goal haul, Blackpool still only managed a tenth-placed finish after losing almost as many games as they won.

He scored one hat-trick, in a 6–0 whitewash of Lincoln City at Bloomfield Road on 8 September 1919.
