Andrew's Bio

I've recently finished my Journalism Diploma in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. I enjoy all sports including football (soccer), rugby, cricket and motor racing. I love football and support Glasgow Rangers, along with my national side Scotland. I have played football at every possible level in South Africa, apart from the Premier Soccer League. This includes the National First Division (pro league) and the provincial 2nd & 3rd divisions which are semi pro.

I love writing both my opinion on things as well as writing in the more traditional type of newspaper journalism. My favourite topic is football (soccer), but I also dabble in other sporting codes.

I look forward to contributing more to this site.

    Hey Andrew,

    I was wondering why I was removed from the rankings list on the FIFA. You seem to be Leader on this site (actually you are)...

    Just wanted to know if it had happened before or something. My articles dont even reach the general play-by-play site anymore....

    Let me know what you know lol..

    Andrew. I read your latest article and it seemed to be aimed at people such as myself who have commented on your articles but not necessarily agreed with you.
    So, I have decided to take your advice and write my own opinion piece.
    Like you I follow Scottish football, and so have taken the current hot topic of conversation in Scotland for my article.
    Hope you enjoy it.

    Andrew,

    Thanks for the note. I already feel I give all writers the respect their writing deserves. I think there are far worse offenders than me on the board in the respect stakes, but I know I am forthright and might not be everyones cup of tea, I can live with that.

    I will endeavor to be even more respectful in future, but at the same time, if I think something is dross, then I will say so.

    Cheers

    Simon

    A British side winning on penalties? Who would have thought? :P

    All jokes aside, congrats to your 'Gers and best of luck to them in Manchester!
