Graeme Murty is delighted to get the chance to face Celtic in his testimonial match next May. The Royals skipper looked as though he would be denied the chance to face the Scottish giants after initial plans to play them this summer were ruled out because of police costs. Inter Milan were then lined up, but Murty was forced to scrap that and delay his benefit match until next year after the club suffered relegation and had to alter their pre-season schedule as the Championship campaign kicks off earlier than the Premier League fixtures. Murty’s father is an ardent Bhoys fan, having grown up near Celtic Park and the Glasgow outfit have agreed to play. Police costs are also much lower as there are no other major events in May. Royals’ skipper said: “It is a great honour for me for Celtic to come and play in this match. “With my dad being a life-long fan, the club has always featured very strongly in our family. “It’s a dream to get them down here and I’m sure the fans will love seeing one of the biggest clubs in Britain here.” Edited February 11, 2017 by ian1964 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,249 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Hope you night out was good it is something else to come in to this news,agree with you totally regards Sunday we have to get 100% behind the team from kick-off. I too wonder if the players he signed will still go on about their loyalty to us or now that MW has gone will give up the ghost? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RANGERRAB 3,299 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Agreed with hindsight Weir came to the club at 37 after plying his days for Everton. It was the club who extended his career as much as he played well. The only thing baffling me still is why would the club waive compensation if they are resigning. No pay off should be part of them decided to go. LOL how can we get compensation ? They've not got a new club to go to have they ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
