Kevin Francis Tully (born 18 December 1952) is an English former footballer. A Left winger, he made 164 league appearances in a nine-year career in the Football League.
He began his career with non-league Prestwich Heys, before signing with Blackpool in 1972. He transferred to Cambridge United the following year, before joining Crewe Alexandra in 1975. After three seasons with the "Railwaymen" he was traded to Port Vale in a player-exchange deal in October 1978. He left the club in February 1980, and then joined Bury via Chorley, before heading into non-league football with Barrow and Witton Albion in 1981.
Tully began his career with Prestwich Heys. In 1972, he joined a then-managerless Blackpool, for whom he went on to make eleven Second Division appearances. He made his debut for the club on Boxing Day, in a 2–1 defeat at Lancashire neighbours Burnley, and went on to make a further four starts and one substitute appearance before the end of the 1972–73 campaign. Under Harry Potts, who was installed as manager at Bloomfield Road in the latter stages of the previous season, Tully started the first five league games of 1973–74, before leaving to join Cambridge United. United were relegated out of the Third Division at the end of the season under the management of Bill Leivers. Ron Atkinson then took charge at Abbey Stadium, and the club went on to finish sixth in the Fourth Division in 1974–75, just two places and three points behind the promotion places.
