Fans invited to celebrate Horne testimonial

Alan Horne is the longest serving player of the books of Bonnyrigg Rose and he has played on over 300 occasions for the cinch Scottish league Two club.

The 33-year-old was originally brought to New Dundas Park from Tranent Juniors by then Rose manager Max Christie and he enjoyed an outstanding first season, winning the Players’ Player of the Year and Supporters’ Player of the Year awards.

The man nicknamed the Tranent Pele can play across midfield and defence and has earned plaudits for his composure.

Horne has already enjoyed testimonial lunch and, on Sunday, his service is celebrated with a match at New Dundas Park.

It’s at 2pm and admission is £5 and features a Rose v Tranent Legends game.

Of course, Rosey Posey are at Sauchie Juniors on Saturday on Scottish Cup duty. It’s the second round and the match kicks-off at Beechwood Park at 3pm.
