A mystery Liverpool fan has gone to great lengths to declare his love for his favourite team - by carving their initials into a hillside with letters measuring 100 metres long.

Whether it be Eddie “The Eagle” Edwards throwing himself off a ski jump, Leicester City winning the Premier League at odds of 5000-1 or those Jamaican Bobsledders,...
