Jamie's Bio

A supporter of Liverpool since the age of eight, I have spent 21 years following the many ups and downs of this historical team.

Admiring the long standing morals and examples set by the club, I feel proud to be a part of the world famous support from the Anfield faithful.

I am a massive supporter of football as a whole and completley admire other teams like Man United, Arsenal, Everton, Spurs and Aston Villa, amongst others - I am lucky not to be tied to traditional rivalries as some supporters are.

I also have a huge passion for pretty much any sport including Golf, Basketball, Tennis, Motorsports, and American Football being amongst my favourites.

Its only really the last four or five years ive started to understand a lot more about football and lately I have found I have really enjoyed passionatly debating and discussing it, which in turn naturally led me to writing about it.

I have never written articles before and hope in a few years I will have learnt enough about football and evolved my writing to a standard good enough to be remembered.

Hi Jamie.

From what I gather the Featured Columnist is because they asked me to provide Hull City articles for the site.

As the only real Hull City writer who writes on a regular basis I am the logical choice.

You on the other hand support Liverpool and as there are quite a few Liverpool fans on the site writing about the Reds the editorial team may have given the job to one of your fellow Liverpool fans.

Hope this helps.

They want me to try to write three articles a week. That ain't going to happen as I have a wife, a child, and a life outside Bleacher Report.

I've finally got around to writing something about the Tiger's current plight. Take a look for me and see what you think.

To my shame, I've yet to see Frost/ Nixon but it's n my radar. I liked your other choices....almost as much as I liked the piece on Paul Tomkins. Classy gesture. Nice one.

Michael was there to see the match against the Clarets.

I'm so very happy for that.

Not exactly.

Free-lancing has taken it's toll on me with studies.

It's like I'm heading for a disaster ahead with my grades.

Along with the crap that I get to read, sums up my dead-day/s.

Everything else, is good.

Hope Dillian and everyone else is fine.

Goota get some vital sleep,

Stevie G scores a double (quite impressive),
