Joseph Mullett (2 October 1936 – 1995) was an English professional footballer who made 216 appearances in the Football League playing for Birmingham City and Norwich City. [2]
Mullett was born in Halesowen, which was then in Worcestershire. He joined Birmingham City in 1955, and soon after he completed his National Service he made his first-team debut. [1] This came in the First Division on 11 September 1957 in a home game against Tottenham Hotspur which finished goalless; Mullett played at left half to allow Dick Neal to stand in for Peter Murphy at inside left. He kept his place for three games in Murphy's absence, [3] but those were the only first-team games he played for Birmingham, and in February 1959, Norwich City paid £2,000 for his services. At Norwich he was converted to play at full back, [1] went on to make 213 Football League appearances for the club, [2] and helped them to win the 1962 League Cup. [4] He spent nearly ten years with Norwich, before finishing off his career in non-league football in the East Anglia area. [1]
Mullett died in Cradley Heath, West Midlands, in 1995. [1] [2]
