What happened. Celtic allowed Stephen Welsh to leave the club on a free transfer during the summer window. His performances since have raised questions over whether that was a mistake.

• Welsh departed Parkhead without Celtic receiving a fee.
• He has been described as 'immediately undroppable' at his new club.

If Welsh keeps his place and impresses, Celtic's decision to let him go for free will face more scrutiny.
