Sadly, news is in that Alan Welsh has died.

He gave the greatest performance I've ever witnessed in the 3-0 hammering of QPR at Loftus Road in that League Cup run of ours back in the 70's.

Ad astra Welshy.

Such a shame. He joined Nigel's Memories FB page quite early on and always had time for the fans. RIP Alan. Thoughts are with his family and friends.

RIP.

Also scored at Birmingham in League Cup QF that season although his effort was rather overshadowed by Steve Davey's 30 yard volley. Well worth bunking off school for.

What a player he was, part of an exceptional Torquay team that almost reached the old div 2.One of those rare talents that we fans love he was a west country Stan Bowles.

RIP

Gave me a lot of pleasure. RIP

Sad news indeed. That is one night I will never forget. R.I.P.

A special game that was at QPR, the best Argyle performance I have witnessed and Alan Welsh was the pick of our team that night. RIP.

Lovely player...played with Mariner under Waiters before Raffs arrived. Never forget Birmingham FL cup away. RIP Welshy.

RIP Pilgrim

Last met him - a long time ago - in "The Noah's Ark" !!

Lovely guy and had a few cracks with him.

RIP, Welshy

i was also at the qpr match,he was superb.what sad news.

I remember Welshy - he wasn't particularly quick but he kind of 'drifted' with the ball with his excellent close control. Could put in a wicked cross too. RIP Pilgrim.

Yes remember that team well. Should have won promotion that season was it 67/68 season.?
RIP
