Robbie Kelleher (born 14 February 1984 in Cork) is a League of Ireland footballer.

He originally transferred to Limerick from junior club Fairview Rangers in 2005. He made 62 league appearances over the following two seasons and scored eight league goals before leaving the club to sign for Shamrock Rovers on 27 January 2007. He scored his only two goals in the Hoops against Longford in March 2007.^[1]

Robbie spent just a few months with the Hoops, scoring twice in just 3 league appearances, before asking to be released from his contract due to the pressure of travelling to Dublin for games. Then Rovers manager Pat Scully was quoted as saying "He's as disappointed as we are – and we're very disappointed. Robbie's a player of great ability but having to travel up from Limerick for training and to play in games proved too much for him. We respect his decision and obviously wish him well in his future career."

After two seasons with Fairview Robbie returned to league football in the summer of 2009, signing once again for Limerick. He played 13 times in the league over the latter half of '09 and remained with the club into 2010, making a further 12 league appearances before being released by the club that July.

In February 2012 Robbie signed for Mike Kerley at Athlone Town.^[2]
