Robert Timothy Chase (July 1938 – 3 March 2023) was an English businessman from Norfolk.
Chase was most notable for being the chairman of football club Norwich City from 1985 to 1996. His tenure coincided with one of the most successful periods in the club's history, but ended acrimoniously. He managed a family construction business for over 40 years from the early 1960s, was a member of Norfolk County Council and chaired the Norfolk Police Authority for four years.
Chase died after a short illness on 3 March 2023, at the age of 85.
