After 20 years and more than 500 appearances, Hibernian captain Joelle Murray has decided to call time on her legendary career.
"The level of opposition, a world-class club, under the lights at Easter Road. Just leading the club that I've supported all my life out that night was a proud moment for me and my family."Murray insisted earlier on this season that she had no plans to hang up her boots just yet but now admits it is a decision she has been thinking about for a while.
"It was fully considered and I wanted to do it on my terms. I didn't want football to retire me or me to maybe start resenting football a little bit because of neglect and injuries." "I've always maintained that I would let my body tell me when," she said. "People only see me performing on a matchday and the questions have come because I've obviously still been starting and competing.
However, since her last Scotland appearance that year, results and performances have not reached the same heights for the national side.
