The unluckiest player at Celtic or is that his mate Charlie Grant?
VIDEO REPORT
Simon has barely played a game in the last two years but was in the reserve side that started against Aberdeen last night.
Typical of his luck he was sent off after 25 minutes from a dubious decision from the referee with a 'last man' call as it's known but in reality it's preventing a goal scoring opportunity.
Not only did he miss out on last night's match but he's suspended for the reserves next game, at home to Hamilton Accies on Monday October 20!
I suppose on the bright side it'll only be a one match ban since he hasn't had the chance to build up a longer ban since he's missed so much football over the last two season's.
Ferry can be a great player, a box to box midfielder that knows how to tackle, how to pass and to break beyond the strikers to find the net.
He was the youngest player on the park, and man-of-the-match, when Celtic won the 2005 SFA Youth Cup Final against St Mirren thanks to two goals from Jim O'Brien and was at his best the following year as Celtic retained the trophy beating Hearts 3-1.
With a four year contract signed the future looked assured before ankle problems kicked in denying him the chance to move up.
Hopefully this suspension will be his last hurdle towards recovery and we'll soon get the chance to see him develop from youth team player into first teamer, he's up there with Liam Miller and Aiden McGeady in terms of ability shown at youth team level.
