Wind of Change Jump to last As I sit down to write this article and think of the song by The Scorpions, I cannot help but feel a real sense of joy. It is not a transient feeling of happiness that comes with a last-minute win, but a joy from deep within that comes from knowing that we are headed in the right direction. I am generally known in my family and friend circles as a pessimist. The only exception to this rule is when I look forward to each new football season with Everton. I always start off thinking – this could be the year that everything changes for the better. This wears off at different intervals based on how badly we do each year.
