Weir delighted to pen new Gers deal

David Weir says Walter Smith's decision to remain at the helm for another year played a big part in his own decision to stay at Rangers. The veteran defender agreed a new one-year deal on Wednesday, one which sees him remain with the Scottish champions for a fourth season.He told the official club website: "I am absolutely delighted to have signed for another year. Rangers is where I want to be so I am very happy."At the end of last season I spoke to a few people and always felt I would come back but until everything is confirmed you don't want to say too much as there is still an element of doubt."But it's nice to know that everything is sorted out and I can look forward to pre-season and preparing for the new campaign."It's great also that the manager has stayed on board for another year and that was a big factor in my decision."I have a great relationship with him and all the players will be desperate for more success in what will be his last year."
