Some really pathetic Rovers fans out there, I seen some take their time to write to the HDM about this and tagging the RFL and anti doping agency on Twitter. I know they don't like him, but trying to ruin a mans career, the double standards as they have spent all week talking about mental health of players, then they do this.

One good thing is they will be probably help us get him signed on for at least another season.

The club will undoubtedly have to be seen to take some action as it flies in the face of everything coming from pearson and radford about behavior and culture. Certainly nothing overly serious and I'm more bothered about the state he's got in during the season than what he's drunkenly mumbled.

Does always amaze me that professional sportsmen put themselves in the position to be compromised like that. Never mind the fact that that amount of alcohol consumption can't be good for an athletes body.
It's happened before now, and will no doubt happen again. I'm sure the club will take [iproportionate[/i action.

As for the Dobbins they aren't outraged, they're desperate!

Personally Dave I don't really care about Kelly he's not our player so doesn't concern me but blaming Rovers fans for trying to ruin his career is a bit OTT he's only got himself to blame for all this but while he's doing the business on the pitch the majority of fans won't be bothered he had these sort of incidents when he was with us and it caught up with him in the end as you could see how unfit he was

They will be fuming even more when we announce his new three year contract.

ever heard of punctuation? Bitter Rovers fans, as usual.

Just seen it very disappointed with him. Totally obnoxious. If that's how he usually behaves on the drink I'm surprised he hasn't been filled in. Fine him and get him to make an apology. While they are at it get him to spend more time at the gym because he's getting to be a right fat get.

How am I bitter like I said not our player so doesn't bother me what he does

I saw a number of posts on this exact forum claiming Minns using mental health as an excuse for taking drugs was just a pathetic excuse and a cover up, but now flirt with the idea that this episode could affect kellys. So mother dieing - doesn't affect it, mean words on twitter - can affect it. Come on, you are better then this.

The bitter comment wasn't directed at you, the pathetic KR fans tagging the RFL and other agencies in.

Ok and for what it's worth that is pathetic

IF he fails any test, I expect the full weight of the rules to come down. It's a matter for the club and authorities, not posts on the HDM website. Plenty of players, from all clubs, go out and get drunk, should they do it, possibly not. I have a good friend who is a doctor who gets drunk on a Sunday, is he "fit for work" on Monday, probably no, but nobody video's him. If it wasn't Albert Kelly this wouldn't even be being discussed.

Your mate is a GP who gets drunk on. Sunday and turns up at work unfit the following morning ...... really.

Firstly, can I put on record that I am not condoning Kelly's actions and action from the club (internal disciplinary therefore private) and a public apology should be made. I would however like to state the few observations I have made:

a) He's clearly drunk, very drunk. Those stating the use of drugs are clearly in wishful thinking mode.
b) The lads were given a couple of days off as we have the luxury of a 9 day turnaround, therefore he's not gone out against the club's rules, although I think the level of drinking and eating habits will be discussed with him once they are back in training!
c) I find it very convenient that this display was filmed as Kelly started on his abuse. What was said previously to get him into this state because personally it looks like a bloke who just wants to eat his nuggets in peace...he's clinging onto them like a toddler
d) I can be a horrible drunk and if wound up, very abusive which is something I'm not proud of and I am more than aware of. As I said at the beginning, I'm not condoning Kelly's actions, but we clearly don't know the fully story here. This stinks of a set up. I sure as hell don't walk around filming everything and I'm pretty sure others don't either. I have no idea what caused Kelly to react the way he did, and call her the names he did, but I'm pretty convinced that there's a lot of this conversation missing and only the juicy bits are what's remaining...convenient eh?
