Mulcahy was released by County at the end of the 2006 season, Mulcahy spent only one season at Waterford before he linked up with his former Dublin City boss Dermot Keely at Shelbourne for the 2008 season.[3] Mulcahy made his Shelbourne debut as a second-half substitute in a scoreless draw against Dundalk at Tolka Park on 7 March 2008.[4] He was largely utilised as an impact substitute at Shelbourne where he impressed to help the Reds to the summit of First Division table during the first half of the 2008 season. Mulcahy departed Shelbourne in June 2008 in order to travel to Australia. During his short spell at the Tolka Park club he made 2 starts and 8 substitute appearances in all competitions.
