Welsh leaves by mutual consent

No suprise..needed at his age to be playing regularly..very dissapointed in what he offered us when he did play. All the best though in whatever comes next for him.

Was excited by his signing but it's proved not to work out. Sadly, I think age has done him in.

The planning for next season begins.

I really hope we take advantage of the fact that we are safe now (we should be) and get a head start on planning for next season over a lot of the other teams that still are not sure what division they will be in.

Having said that we will still probably end up with the dregs that no one wants   :-/

Right decision for player and club I think.

Big earner
Hardly played
When he has played he's looked past it
Was under contract for next season so that leaves a space

Good bloke and a top professional but age has caught up with him now

Thought he be a central part of the mainstay of our team this season but it turned out not to be unfortunately.

Good luck to him in the future though.

Pleased to see this has been sorted now and not left until May. It was clear from early on that he could not fit into the side because he just has not got the mobility anymore. Pity, I hoped he would be the midfield maestro, but we move on.

Gotta say I'll miss some of his sliding challenges...always made me watch with one eye shut and waiting for the crunch!!..
Good luck to him in whatever the future holds, would've been nice to have him a few years ago but looked past his sell by date every time he played..

I was more surprised we didn't release him in January to be honest with him hardly playing. It was worth a punt to take him on because if it worked out it seemed like he would of been a star at this level, but like others have said his legs had gone and was always on Dave Moores physio table so it was coming.

Thats all he had IMO.
On paper not a bad signing ...in reality ...a bad signing.

Wasn't impressed from my first glimpse and never showed me anything to persuade me otherwise. Good decision to call it quits now.

I disagree. I think the improvement Harry Clifton has made coupled with the consistency of Hess's performances has given Welsh limited opportunities. IMO these two players performances have taken MJ a bit by surprise and given him a few selection headaches. We still have Whitehouse to get fit and back into action. I don't think Shaw will be missed and possibly not even replaced.

Think davec hit the nail on the head early on. Shame it didn’t work out here but really smart decision for both himself and the club. He will want to be playing and we can’t offer that. He’s not up to it physically anymore, that was obvious from almost the first game. He’s probably a big earner and I did worry the other day when I realised he still had another year to run on his contract.
Whilst he hasn’t been playing though he’s been a credit to himself. We don’t see much behind the scenes but there’s been no rumours of discontent and he’s only been supportive of the club, the team and our younger players in the media.
Best of luck to him :-)

Shame how this one worked out, loved a few of his challenges and I really thought he might be the midfield general we’ve missed for years, I guess football has moved on a bit and Hess has really filled that role instead.

Top bloke though and I’m sure will be missed around the place, good luck Welshy!
Posted by: Maringer, March 21, 2019, 9:57am; Reply: 27
Any 'senior' player who hasn't played much for a few years is a big gamble. I think if they can keep playing regularly and avoid bad injury in their early 30s, older players can often keep on going as Collins has shown, but you don't get many players of a certain age coming back from longer lay-offs.

Hopefully, the pay-off didn't cost much. I wish him well for the future.
Posted by: sam gy, March 21, 2019, 10:22am; Reply: 28
Not a shame IMO, because, like others have mentioned, the emergence of Hess and Clifton has played a massive part in his limited game time, which is a massively positive thing.

Still, he seemed like a great pro, and it can’t have been easy with all the traveling/being away from family when you’re not playing.

Parachuted in as club skipper over Collins and looked to be playing in flip flops in the Cleethorpes heatwave friendly. Collins, in contrast, was in great condition and looked like a senior pro.
If Welsh really was on a top wage, then due diligence was not done. Hopefully, the club and MJ can learn from this. Doubly ironic as MJ will be well connected with the Lancashire coaching network and usually makes a point of 'good character' in his signings.

Disappointing and sad all round.  A lot of us who warmed to someone we thought was a decent pro and person, will feel let down.

The timing of his release seems to suggest the club may have had a clause allowing him to play until it came to trial, and rather than wait for the inevitable guilty plea and sentencing, sensibly cut ties ahead of time.

Let's move on and support the players who are here.

Before this came out I thought parting ways with Welsh was obviously for the best, but wondered how much of his contract we had had to pay off to do it. I would assume now we could have terminated his contract as he pleaded guilty to a serious crime, so wont have cost anything?

Hopefully his wages can be spent on a quality striker or wide player, it will be a significant boost to jolley's budget anyhow (if I am correct in assuming his contract was terminated).

Think he was the getaway driver. One of the other gang members played for Croydon Athletic. At the time me and a couple of mates went to watch Croydon play and my mate who used to produce the programme or something was told that said player hadn't turned up that day because he'd had his collar felt. Real life seems to intrude a lot more at that level of football.

I don't think anyone would ask a player specifically if he's facing charges of assault when they're looking to sign him. But, just like in 'regular' employment processes, I'd imagine the club would ask if he has a criminal record, or if he's currently facing trial for any criminal activity.

Pretty standard stuff. Usually gets ticked off pretty quickly with a 'no'.

Social media shows he’s probably spent more time in Liverpool than he has GY too. I was very surprised to see the reaction when he went was more of disappointment as I thought he’d been stealing a wage from us (a rather hefty according to reports at that).

I know a lady taxi driver from Liverpool who chased a customer down the street who hadn't paid his fare. She knocked him down and then reversed over him. When she and her husband told me they didn't bat an eyelid - must be a normal occurrence down their way.
