Post in thread 'The Summer 2024 Rangers Transfer Window Rumours and Deals - Thread'Numerous sources saying we have signed him - out of contract at M/WELL
Not if that backup is actually needed to play.Fine for a back up.
Nothing more
He’s costing buttons in wages and will be a number 2 or 3 in pecking orderHope the sources are wrong. Kelly is pish.
He’s really not a good goalie. Consistently makes howlers and the second worst keeper in the league for every measurable stat.Good goalie and is Scottish free transfer low wages no brainer imo
He is awful, I thought the filth were showing interest in himNumerous sources saying we have signed him - out of contract at M/WELL
A backup should still be a good keeper. We had to play a European final with our backup keeper in 2008 and luckily he was a very good keeper.As a backup for McCrorie leaving? Fine.
Starter? Worrying.
I think he and Kieran Wright might compete for the third spot, and we should sell Robbie.I would like to see Jay Hogarth given an opportunity.
If he is signed as JB replacement then it's a sure sign that PC won't be backed in the transfer market. Bit like it was looking obvious that GVB wasn't going to be backed when we resigned McGregor in 2022.
Hopefully he's just a back up option because McCrorie wants to leave.
No way is Kelly a replacement for Butland should he leave.
He's our Scott Carson, here to win boat loads of trophies, practice his golf swing during the day and be a good Ranger at night. The dream job.Lol, famous last words but how many games have Mcglaughlin and McCrorie had between them in recent years? Kelly is a replacement for one of them or both. No probs with that.

You're not wrong. Source.
And I'm not at all surprised just going by the eye-test of seeing him play on Sportscene each week. He has been significantly worse for Motherwell this season than in his previous two with them.
Depressing news this if it turns out to be accurate.
If you go below that chart there is a player goalkeeping part that if you click it opens the chart for each individual keeper in the league. Kelly is 2nd bottom for everything there too.

That’s club goalkeeping. The chart for individual keepers has Will Dennis top for save percentage and Roos is second.Not sure I’m willing to trust stats that have Roos at Aberdeen out on top.
Although I agree Kelly has had a poor season and surely not a chance he’d be first choice if someone comes in for Butland.
He’s decent with the ball at his feet and has good distribution but concedes a lot of poor goals
He has been getting pelters from Motherwell fans wanting him dropped for the past 2 seasons. Probably why he is happy to come and sit on the bench out of the limelight.Always remember he took pelters from fans with that Pedro in the bush incident
I really don't think we can afford to be so flippant.Lol, famous last words but how many games have Mcglaughlin and McCrorie had between them in recent years? Kelly is a replacement for one of them or both. No probs with that.
He really isn’tHope the sources are wrong. Kelly is pish.
Have you actually watched him this season or last? One of the worst keepers in the league both in the eye test and every single stat.He really isn’t
Hard getting quality back up knowing they are never going to replace super JackI really don't think we can afford to be so flippant.
Last season Jack Butland missed 16 games for Palace after breaking one of his fingers. And he was out for more than a year with a dislocated ankle while playing for Stoke.
Your number 1 keeper being out for a sustained period of time is not some implausible scenario. We absolutely do need a quality back-up.
Yes. NonsenseHave you actually watched him this season or last? One of the worst keepers in the league both in the eye test and every single stat.
Had another absolute at the weekend, he’s dire.He’s really not a good goalie. Consistently makes howlers and the second worst keeper in the league for every measurable stat.
