Im back for a second helping of Bleacher after about 3 months away, I decided to take a break because I went through a phase of not really enjoying watching and writing about sport. The issues that surrounded my beloved Newcastle were too much to handle.

However slowly but surely I have fallen back in love with the Premiership and football in general. Watching teams like Hull and Aston Villa match the Top 4 and seeing players like Robinho, Deco, Agbonlahor and Ashley Young strut their stuff has helped me recover from the low point of a few months ago. Hence why I'm back on a new profile, I needed to draw a line under my previous experience and start a fresh.

So a lot has changed since I was contributing on a regular basis. The site has a newer, fresher look about it, more writers have got themselves on the scene, only the hardcore rocks of Andrew, Salaar, Barney and SB really remain. I was sad to see Saloman had bowed out because he was a fine writer who I respected for his honest opinions. Chris and Alby Jr seem to have departed as well and i would like to thank them for showing me the ropes initially.

I cant wait for the challenge of rising from a member to a senior writer once again. This time with better articles then before!
