Health issues see Horn step down at Berwick

Berwick Rangers’ 3-0 defeat at table-topping Edinburgh City was followed by the news that Shielfield manager Robbie Horn had opted to walk away from the job as it was affecting his health.

Former Berwick captain Horn had been at the helm for 13 months but has created the third managerial vacancy in League 2 this season.

He said: “When you stop enjoying the game you love, and it affects your health it’s time to admit defeat.”

Marc Laird fired City ahead midway through the first half and Blair Henderson headed in their second just after the break, before grabbing his second from the penalty spot. Edinburgh manager James Mcdonagh said: “The confidence is growing every week.”
