Born in Ashton-under-Lyne, Kelly was given a full-time contract with Oldham Athletic in Summer 2007, having successfully played as a youth and reserve player at the club. In October 2007, he joined Leigh RMI on loan for one month, making a solitary appearance against Blyth Spartans.[3] He later signed for Barrow on loan in December 2007, though never made an appearance.[4]

Kelly's first senior squad appearance for Oldham Athletic came on 12 April 2008 in a 2–0 win over Leyton Orient.[5] In April 2008, both Kelly and teammate Mike Pearson were told that they were to be released at the end of their contracts.[6]
