Everton vs Arsenal (19/03/2016)

Now, how do I start?

Let me start by saying, I've been on a hiatus. From the love of my life, Everton. I thought that I should distract myself with something else so I won't get disappointed every weekend by them. I thought I could just leave and walk away. I thought I could move on.

But I couldn't.

How do you describe your love for a football club? How can you describe your love for a football club? Honestly, I don't know. I don't know why I keep coming back, loss after loss. And no matter how far I run, I always find myself looking behind me, subtly checking on them. Quietly making sure they're still keeping their head above the water. Silently praying the tables will turn sooner or later. Forcing myself to believe that things will get better. But as a 19 year old Evertonian, I'm tired of this. I've never seen Everton win a trophy in my life. I'm tired of waiting, tired of hoping, tired of this emotional roller coaster that I have to go through every other day.

But that's the thing you see. They let me down all the time, and yet I come back for more one week later. Why? I don't know.

I'll be back again though. I will.

Hello!

Hi there!

So let me start by saying I'm a just another Evertonian like you! or not. But it's fine whether you are or you are not. Anyway, being an Evertonian I needed a place to rant. and well, I didn't want to write and waste precious ink that I could use instead for my examinations. So I decided to come here, to share with everyone my opinions on the on-goings at my beloved club, Everton.

Just to let you all know, I'm 18 this year and I've been supporting Everton since I was about 10. Not too long, I know. But I love Everton with all my heart because they helped me get through some tough times in my life and I will always be forever grateful.

But it's not just that, ever since I started supporting them I've grown to feel at home watching them. I feel happy, and I love listening to some Everton fans rant and ramble because I know exactly what it feels like. I love when the old lady sings at the top of her lungs and there's nothing out there that can stop her. I love the family-ness of this club and how no matter how bad Everton made us feel last weekend, we will still travel as far as we need to just to watch our boys play this weekend. It's an Evertonian thing.

because no matter how bad it is, Everton have a special place in my heart. always have and always will.
