Dear Malaysian Reds, if you live around KL area, you wou've at lest heard of the place Broadwalk, probably been there too, I have been going there for about 5 years now. It's a nice little place with lots of pictures, scarfs and flags, things that us reds would bring back and give it to Bala, the previous owner, yes previous, he sold the place to a couple who knows nothing about football. And the place is not the same since.
Being thousands of miles away from Anfield, this is THE place to be on match day if you want good atmostphere and great crowd. Plus, it is the place where we know for sure they will show the game on tele, rather than some other crap games involving Rent boys, Moan USA or ARSE ANAL.
The thing is lads, the place is dying, most of the usual people stop going after Bala sold the place off and that many just simply stop, I'm not sure why, but the thing is that many have started to go to other place which they claimed that is not as nice and don't always show the games.
I was there for the past few weeks and the it is depressing to know that there's only about 4 or 5 people there, from an atmosphere better than some pubs in Liverpool itself (something I am proud of, told to me by a few scousers).
Out of concern, I met up with the owners about a couple of hours ago to axpress my concern about the place, as I heard that there's a plan to turn it into a sports bar, somehow the thought of the emblem with that devil hanging next to Shanks' picture on this side and the stupid cannon on the other just do me in. I can't take that. I asked them to give it another go, just to see if crowd would come back, for my part, I have promised that I will post it up here for everyone to see and hopefully come back and support the place, it's not so much the area but the environment, for those who were there, cast your mind back when we won number 5 in the wee hours, or when Stevie thundered that shot in 7 months ago, how the place simply exploded into this euphoria of songs and strangers hugging each other.
The owners also said that they will put in some effort into starting some football related, especially LFC related promotions and let's bring back the glory days, starting this weekend at the 2300 hrs kick off (Malaysian time) against Spurs, I will be there, hope that everyone will be there and I know I am using this a little loosely, but I thinkit's time we Reclaim Our Broadwalk, this is very similar to the RTK campaign here.
They shouldn't walk alone...
