Crusaders manager Stephen Baxter is set to step down this summer following almost two decades at the Seaview helm
Baxter - who celebrated his 950th game in charge of the Crues on Saturday - is set to step down at the end of the season.
Baxter will be honoured with a testimonial lunch and game on Saturday, June 22. The opponents that day will be the team they beat in that historic Setanta victory way back in 2012 - Derry City. "We know what he has achieved in this period winning 17 trophies along the way in the Premiership and Championship while bringing success to our Club that was well beyond anyones wildest dreams at the time. Stephen also took charge of Crusaders in Europe on 36 occasions facing opponents of 16 different countries.
"We will play the current Derry City team at Seaview on Saturday 22nd June as a nod to what Stephen says is probably his “greatest achievement” when Crusaders beat Derry City in the Final of the Setanta Cup on Saturday 12th May 2012 to become All Ireland Champions."
