}}William Henry Horne (1885–1930) was an English footballer who played in the Southern League for Plymouth Argyle and Fulham.[2] He was a goalkeeper.[2] Horne served with the Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry in South Africa during the Second Boer War.[2]

Life and career

Horne was born in Plympton.[1] He served with the Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry in South Africa during the Second Boer War before returning to play football in Devon and Cornwall.[2] Horne played for Tavistock and Essa prior to joining Plymouth Argyle on amateur terms in January 1904.[2] He served as understudy to Jack Robinson in his first season and made three appearances before signing a professional contract.[2] He became the club's first choice goalkeeper during the 1904–05 season but eventually lost his place in the team after Argyle signed England international John Willie Sutcliffe.[2] Horne joined Fulham in May 1906 and made three appearances in his one season with the club.[3]

He returned to Argyle the following year and spent the next four seasons as understudy to Sutcliffe.[2] Horne became the club's first choice again in 1911–12 and the following season he received a Southern League winners medal.[2] He made his last appearance for Argyle in November 1914 before losing his place in the side to Fred Craig.[2][4] His career was then interrupted by the outbreak of war as competitive football was suspended in 1915. Horne remained on the club's books and was a member of the squad for the 1919–20 season, serving as back-up to Craig,[4] but did not add to his 240 appearances for Argyle in all competitions and then retired due to ill health.[2] Horne died in Plymouth in 1930.[5]
