Kelly’s transfer history was built around low-cost movement: an initial move to St Mirren, a loan to Dumbarton, a free transfer to Dumbarton and then another free transfer to East Kilbride. The loan-to-permanent sequence at Dumbarton was the clearest sign of a club taking a longer look before committing.
