Aircraft Engine Pylon Design

Hi All,
Forgive me for the incursion of the tech log forum, and please feel free to post if inappaproriately posted....
I have been working at Farnborough this week and thus spent a lot of time looking at aircraft...
Left me with a question... why are aircraft engines always slung forward of the wing rather than below it.
Apologies if it's a really basic question for you techies....
