Andrew's Bio

Football has always been a huge part of my life and writing here on Bleacher Report is a huge pleasure. As the community leader of the World Football section for the last 10 months or so, I've seen it grow from the English Premier League section into the global debate it is today.

I'm proud of the role I played in that transition and will continue to support our good friend Salaar as he aims to take us further.

I've recently returned to Scotland from South Africa after 10 years in the football mad continent. I've been around professional football at many levels in South Africa but now persue a career writing about the beautiful game.

I also spent plenty of time at St Georges Park, Port Elizabeth working with some of the best cricketers in the world.

I'm presently continuing my BA Journalism degree at the University of the West of Scotland.

Welcome to Bleacher Report and I hope you enjoy my work!
