On the fringes of the Leyton Orient first team at the start of 2000-01, Simon Downer went on to win a regular place in the starting line-up by the end of the season partnering Dean Smith in the centre of defence.
A promising centre half, he has an excellent turn of speed, a crisp tackle and never knows when he is beaten.
His progress was tracked by a number of bigger clubs and he spent a week on trial at Newcastle United during the campaign.
