BASSA

Injury news:
"Curtis Davies
The centre-back is currently out of action after undergoing a minor operation on his knee having picked up an injury during a tackle in the defeat to Ipswich. The surgery was successful, but the former Hull City and West Brom centre-back is now working on his rehab.
The defender will be hoping to be back in December
James Chester
The former Aston Villa centre-back picked up a calf problem in the goalless draw against Exeter at the end of October and has been ruled out for up to two months. He is not expected to be back until late December and is currently working his way back to fitness.
Conor Hourihane
Ex-Villa midfielder Hourihane was sick before the game against Liverpool but managed to see out the 90 minutes despite flagging in the last 15. However, he is considered a major doubt for the weekend's game against MK Dons.
Jason Knight
The Republic of Ireland international is also a major doubt for the MK Dons game with an ankle problem. Warne confirmed he had been due to play 30 minutes against Liverpool on Wednesday, but did not look right in the warm-up.
He did manage to get five minutes at the end of the Carabao Cup tie, but Derby are now sweating on his availability for the weekend.
Tom Barkhuizen
The good news is that the winger is back on the grass after suffering a hamstring problem that he picked up at Ipswich.
While he is making good progress, Derby do not want to rush him back before he is ready to play a full 90 minutes. However, his return should be not too far away."

Because it was Anfield and they wanted to play? Maybe sometimes the reward is needed.

Tbh I tend to agree. I love some to and fro between supporters but some fans when we go away, and we were next to some again last night, seem more intent on just abusing the home fans than they are of supporting their team. I'm in the south stand and cringe when we're at home and it's the "you're support is..." or "you're in the shadow of....". Must be my age.

100% - my experience of Liverpool fans is they are really nice until things stop going their way, then they turn very quickly.

Well it was a good night, the players worked incredibly hard and gave every ounce of effort.
Unpopular opinion I'm sure, but I was a little frustrated at times during the game as when we had the very occasional chance to really have a go at them we backed off and off. Their back line down the flanks was susceptible but when we had a chance to cross there were no bodies in the box or supporting. Understandable for sure, but a little frustrating. Maybe I'm still not used to us being just an average L1 side but, rightly or wrongly, I wanted us to have more of a go at times (not many times, we barely had the ball, but when we did we wasted it constantly - the few moves we did try and play we looked good). 
That's not a criticism though. We looked like we set out from minute one for a 0-0 and great credit to the lads for their effort and Wildsmith's outstanding goalkeeping for getting there. He really is becoming a stand out player this season, considering when he came to us he was Sheff Wed's third choice goalie. The last 25, when Klopp bought on the senior players, we did superbly to hold them off.
The risk when you go away is always who you're next to; we got a bunch of late 20/early 30 lads who's language was not for the faint hearted and who for 90 minutes screamed "god save the king", stuff about the IRA and Enguuuurrrllaaannnd, focusing more on the home fans than the game half the time. Honestly. 
Liverpool crowd very quiet, understandably for a game like this when there will be plenty of people who don't normally go and the opposition. Never really got that wow factor when inside, despite it being one of the most historic/iconic grounds in the world. First real noise came at penalties.
In all the team can be proud of their efforts. It was a decent evening out and the first time I'd been to Anfield since the early 90s. But it won't be the most memorable game this season I imagine. 

Think it would be Barton Bridge over the ship canal on the way to Lymm. Used to be 2p (return) when I was young ! ?

With NML, our best player this season.

Thanks @Ian Buxton's Batjust paid it, only £2, all good

It was more the notion that fans of CL clubs don't go in for "bantz" that I found ludicrous.

To think some wanted another goalie to be our number 1 after we’d signed Joe?
He’s been magnificent and deserves a lot of praise.

Yes. Me and Lucy North Stand Ram! 
On behalf of all the supporters' groups - and supporters, really. Very emotional. No-one should ever go to a football match and not come home.
Liverpool staff were excellent,  very helpful and appreciative. We got escorted back through all the checkpoints to ensure we got to our seats in plenty of time.
We still had a few braindeads chanting their vitriol at the game, but quickly drowned them out with pro-Derby singing.

Or you could have switched Google maps on and went around Warrington and avoided them all! ?
