There's a new book hitting the shelves of bookstores across the world and the title is aptly named " Asian Liverbird".
It is written by a British Asian, Mohammed Bhana, a lifelong Liverpool fan. The book explores why immigrants mainly from Indian subcontinent in 60's and 70's chose LFC upon reaching British shores, and why their offsprings, grandchildren included still wearing the famous red jersey till today.
The fever was and is mainly attributed to one man, Bill Shankly, the former Liverpool manager.
"Shankly didn't care about the colour of your skin, or what your name was, he just wanted the club to conquer the whole world" one fan quoted as saying.
Well Mr. Bhana, we Malaysians loved Liverpool all the same. Dulu, kini dan selamanya!
It transcends all barriers, races and religions. Read other LFC related blogs HERE and HERE

I'm sure you'll get it, how much we loved Liverpool...how we declared our unbridled support here in Malaysia.
Simply, we are the biggest club in the whole wide world. MU who?
