The Silent Assassin - not a man of many words. Simon is one of very few people in Jed to have played for Scottish Schools in recent years, most have left school in 4th year because they are too thick or because they need beer money at Jed Thistle. I think it must have been the prospect of the Scottish Schools tour to New Zealand that kept him on at school because Simon has ended up working in the Dispatch department in Starretts. Also a member of this seasons Borders back up squad.
