(Liverpool of yesteryear's, Macca still got his crowning glory)Sadly..we're losing every time we went there, so much so we've stopped frequenting the joint. It's back to the comfort of our respective living room for now.
Another push factor....we were outnumbered by MU fans, especially the young ones. Ahhh...the need to be associated with the latest craze, the champions, the in thing....that is Manchester United...why suddenly the urge to puke?
Mamat Liverpool said it's a GENERATION thing. I tend to agree with him.
Well, all things considered...it's been a long time since the Reds were crowned as Kings of EPL (see pic). Rick Parry too is a shame..he forgets on commercialization aspect of the club in Asian continent...anyone ever saw LFC online store in Asia except Tokyo? MU did open up their stores in KL and folded...obviously they didn't know Malaysia is Liverpool's last bastion.
So...the support dwindled, ermm..much like a certain political party huh. LFC have lost the battle for Gen X or is it Y, leaving those in their 30's and above as stalwarts.
Thankfully, all is not lost though.
When Mamat Liverpool stumbled upon a gem, a 16 year old school-going lass going gaga over all things Liverpool, at least the GENERATION thing could be a misconception.
Go and support the kiddo HERE.
It's as fresh as lavender.

Hey..
I guess in planning to open an LFC merchandise shoppe in KL requires a deep hard scratch on one's head la. So many pasar malams selling jerseys from Siam..probably would fold like the manure shop. But who knows, maybe it is true Malaysia is a bastion for LFC supporters. And if that is the case, the shop might make a profit since LFC supporters are mostly old and have the money to buy the genuine stuffs la haha...
