The U's second permanent signing under Paul Lambert, arriving for an undisclosed fee from fellow League One side Carlisle United.
Simon had been a popular player for the Cumbrians, but the U's were keen to get their man during the January 2009 transfer window. A pacey winger who loves to run at his man, he has already made a big impression in north Essex.
