As well as reference to the match in question, I also chatted with the Wales U-21 international about his own journey in the beautiful game.
He’s now in his tenth season with The New Saints, and to be at the very top of the game in Wales for so long, that in itself is testament to the ability and dedication of the popular right-back.
You can follow our chat via the video below. Simon has recently got back into fishing. We’ll be talking piscatorial passions shortly so, as they say, watch this space. I’m looking forward very much to that one!
