Michael Walsh (born 30 May 1986, Liverpool) is an English footballer. He played in The Football League for Chester City and now plays for Bangor City in the Welsh Premier league after returning from a 2 year spell with Marfin Laiki League side APOP Kinyras Peyias.
Walsh joined Chester from Rhyl in 2004, making his first-team debut the following January as a substitute in an FA Cup tie at AFC Bournemouth in the left back slot. Walsh joined fellow youngsters Robbie Booth, Gavin Lynch and Shaun Whalley in being given first-team opportunities under Ian Rush. His Football League debut followed, again as a substitute at Cambridge United a week later, with his first goal arriving in a 2–2 draw against Southend United on 5 March 2005.
Despite his involvement in the first-team squad, Walsh and the majority of his team-mates were released at the end of the season.[1] He spent time on trial with Wrexham and briefly returned to Rhyl before joining Bangor City in September 2005.[2] He has played for the Citizens regularly since then.
As a youngster, Walsh captained the North Wales under 18s side.[3]
