KELLY'S DEBUT DELIGHT

Posted on: Mon 22 Feb 2010

Julian Kelly has revealed that he had the backing of the Blues dressing room when it came to deciding who scored the decisive goal in Saturday's 1-0 win over high-flying Millwall.

Both the Reading loanee and fans favourite Kevin Betsy wheeled away in celebration after Kelly's deep cross nestled in the bottom corner of David Forde's net. 

Midfielder Betsy claimed he got a touch on the youngster's delivery but the 19-year-old full-back says it's his goal. 

He said: "Betsy's trying to take it off me but I'm not having any of it! It does not get any better than that for my debut.

"Kevin's trying to say he got a flick but I didn't see it. Everyone in the dressing room said it was my goal as well."

Kelly revelled in his first senior goal by pulling his shirt over his head and darting in all different directions, admitting afterwards that his celebrations can only get better.

"I thought I'd put the ball in an area and I didn't actually see it go in", he said. "I saw everyone celebrating and I just didn't know what to do.

"I started running towards the Millwall end and then I started running towards the other stand - I didn't know where to go!

"I had never scored before so it was great. It was such a good feeling to score the winning goal but the most important thing is the three points."

He added: "When I first came here I wasn't expecting to go straight in because (Lewis) Hunty has played a lot of games but the manager (Gary Waddock) has shown faith in me and I hope I have repaid him."
