THE FA Cup draw against Reading could see Graeme Murty return to Bootham Crescent.

He will be hoping to shake off injury to face his old club in the second round on December 9. Murty has been plagued by injuries since his £700,000 move to the Madejski Stadium in July 1998.

He didn't feature in their 4-0 home win over non-League Grays on Saturday despite recovering from a thigh strain and has only made one start for the Royals this season, against Bristol City on October 21.

He has been kept out of the side by Ricky Newman, who was successfully switched from midfield to right back.

The tie will also be a big game for Neville Stamp, who joined City from Reading this season.
