James Michael Gunning (25 June 1929 – 27 August 1993) was a Scottish professional football winger. He played in the Scottish Football League for Hibernian and in the English Football League for Manchester City and Barrow.

Born in Helensburgh, Gunning was a junior with Wolverhampton Wanderers, but was unable to settle and returned to Scotland in 1946, signing for Hibernian as an amateur.^[3] He then joined the Royal Air Force; a posting in the Highlands allowed Gunning to play Highland League football for Forres Mechanics.^[3] After leaving the RAF, Gunning returned to Easter Road, but he found first team opportunities very limited as Hibs enjoyed the services of The Famous Five.^[3] He played once for Hibs in a league match, during the 1950–51 season.^[3]

Gunning signed for Manchester City in November 1950.^[3] During three seasons with the club, Gunning made 13 league appearances.^[3] He left City in 1953, joining non-league Weymouth but in 1954 returned to the Football League when he joined Barrow, playing ten times in the 1954–55 season.^[2]

Gunning played once for Mossley in the 1957–58 season.^[4]
