Weir: Every derby could be my last

20 April 2011 16:30
Rangers captain David Weir will treat Sunday's Old Firm derby as if it is his last - but only because he realises how special they are. The defender turns 41 next month and has still not decided whether he will quit Ibrox - or playing in general - at the end of the season. Weir is only focusing on the Clydesdale Bank Premier League run-in, which could be defined at Ibrox when Rangers face Celtic for a seventh time this season. The former Everton player has made 21 Old Firm appearances, never missing a derby since signing for Walter Smith in January 2007, and claims they become more special with each meeting. Weir told the Rangers News: "I think the more you play in the Old Firm games, the more special they become for a variety of reasons. "You come to realise very quickly how important they are and how much they mean to people around the club and the fans."
