Sunderland have taken Stockport winger Andy Welsh on trial, giving the 21 yr old a chance to impress McCarthy and win a contact at the SOL.

Welsh can operate as a striker as well as a winger and is highly rated by Stockport manager Sam Mclroy and had this to say on the issue.

"Sunderland boss Mick McCarthy is a big fan and we'll have to see what happens. I haven't heard from Mick yet, but it could be a permanent deal. If one is offered there is no way we could stand in the lad's way."

"We really will be down to the bare bones if Andy Welsh goes to Sunderland."
