Pogba and Lingard put in a couple of beauty's in the comedy cup tonight. Not sure about the cringe celebration though. RVP got a good reception scoring on his return.

Easy for United whilst Southampton were unlucky.
My grandson's first big football match today with me and his dad. We're passing on the privilege like my grandad to my dad and him to me. He did see a bit of a Colne game a couple of weeks ago but today, he'll be in the Kop so the contrast really couldn't be greater.

What age is he? My grandson is five and I'm not sure if he's ready for the football.

Don't forget the Norwegian phrase books, it will help understand what people are talking about during the match
He's 4. I first took his dad when he was the same age but he wanted to leave at half time! Still, Sam has a lot more patience than his dad as he sits through entire games (including extra time) but that's at home so we do have some distraction plans (there's screens downstairs now showing the match and kiosks with hot dogs, sweeties etc). I don't like seeing his face crumple up though when I call for his dad and we have to explain we're going on the Kop and he won't see us for a while. At least he'll be with us this evening!
Would you care to explain that one? Maybe you sit in a different part of Anfield to me and know something I don't but I've can't recall ever meeting a Norwegian or of hearing of one with any relation to the club in my life.Don't forget the Norwegian phrase books, it will help understand what people are talking about during the match

I'm having a giraffe, mate, a bit of friendly banter and all that. But I am amazed, that as a Liverpool fan, you have never heard of the Norway thing with LFC. Anfield is full of them on matchday, Many a rednose I know has spoken to me about them, and it has become a standing joke, hence us bluenoses giving you a bit of friendly stick. If you spend any time in Liverpool city centre before or after an LFC home game, you will come across loads of them, I guarantee it, I always do.
If you don't fancy looking for Norwegians, you can always keep youself entertained at half time with a game of Spot the scouser on the Kop
P.S. Seriously though, I hope your grandson has a wonderful day at his first match, I am sure he will, the way Liverpool have played this season, I am sure they will get the right result to help that happen.

Friday evening/Saturday/Sunday morning, Norwegian airports are 'full' of Norwegian Liverpool fans on their way to Anfield or any away games. Actually a good mate of mine here in Norway, made his first-ever trip to Anfield last month and now wants to move to Liverpool to feel 'the vibe' every time.
In fact the Norwegian Branch of the Liverpool Supporters' Club has, I believe, the largest number of (overseas) fans who travel regularly to games in England.

A quick check on the 'Official Supporters Club Norway' homepage, shows that there are over 400 supporters' branches around the world, with Norway having the largest membership with over 39,000 members.
Naturally they don't all go to the same games, but, still, that's a lot of fans...

This chat about Norwegian footballists reminded me about Tore Andre Flo.
£12 million well spent that in no way has ever come back to bite Rangers on the arse. Not at all.

29 goals in 53 appearances wasn't too bad, was it?
