Episode 7: Sivan John, Malaysia - Huddersfield Town - Far Away Fan

Episode 7: Sivan John, Malaysia – Huddersfield Town

Sivan John is a Huddersfield Town fan
from Malaysia

In this episode we speak with Sivan John. He’s a Writer, blogger, and part-owner of @TheBolaBolaShow.

The lone Huddersfield fan from Malaysia, Sivan’s journey with the club started with a trip to reconnect with family living in Huddersfield.

He spoke to me about the matchday experience and why sharing it was his Uncle was so special.

He talked about club legend Andy Booth and more recently, Aaron Mooy for his impact during his stint at the club. Laurent Depoitre is one player he feels the club possibly didn’t get the best out of.

He’s looking to see more of Chris Willock and Emile Smith Rowe in the coming season. Both Arsenal Academy players and currently on loan from Benfica and Arsenal respectively.

The impact Sivan says, with the appointment of the Cowley Brothers as managers of Huddersfield was almost instantaneous. Even Marco Bielsa praising them for the amazing job they have done.

Sivan’s got a signed Aaron Mooy jersey. It took a bit of a trip to get to him. He’s also got a jersey signed by Hernan Crespo, again a great story you have to hear.

I also asked him what this journey of being a Far Away Fan from Malaysia has meant to him.
