FOOTBALLER Dean Brett made his return to action on yesterday (Monday) evening, following an eight-game ban. 

Brett, from Tranent, was given two four-match bans, one for betting offences during his time at SPFL League Two side Cowdenbeath, which included bets placed against his own team. 

He was also given a further four-game suspension for offensive comments made on Twitter, and was sacked by the Fife club as a result. 

The defender made his return to action in the Junior ranks on Monday evening, though, as he played for Bonnyrigg Rose in their East Superleague defeat to Camelon Juniors.

And Brett completed the 90 minutes on his comeback as Rose came from a goal down to win 2-1, with former Musselburgh Athletic striker Sean Jamieson scoring the winner.
