Noel Mullaney (1937 – 6 September 2025) was an Irish Gaelic footballer. At club level, he played with Sooey and Shamrock Gaels and at inter-county level with the Sligo senior football team.
Mullaney's career began at club level with Sooey, with whom he won a Sligo SFC medal in 1959.[1] By that stage he had already made his first appearance on the inter-county scene as goalkeeper with the Sligo senior football team. Mullaney represented Connacht in the Railway Cup and also lined out in a tournament game in Wembley Stadium in 1966.[2][3] When the Sooey club was disbanded in 1971, he spent a number of years as player and coach with Shamrock Gaels before being a founder-member of the St Michael's club in 1983.[4]
