Never been a football fan to me the players are overpaid prima donnas ,But was fortunate enough to go to Anfield a few years ago on a work convention.
Inside the hospitality was second to non and couldn’t have been made more welcome ,the place oozes quality.
Outside the stadium is another matter and I genuinely feared for my safety.
Likes been said Newcastle’s ground is in the city centre and I think a much better option for the family .

Rest players and get further way ftom the top 5? good choice.

we are not chance against saints so our only hope for a good season is the top 5

I agree off the back of the last performance ,but I think we have every chance of beating saints if we go with the right mindset ,turn up with the right attitude and we’re in the fight ,if not its a hiding to nowhere as saints will be up for it ,the big question is can Chester get our boys up for it .
Think we will see this weekend if the players can respond .

Rest injured players yes.
But don't save players for a big game. It never works.

Anfield is also home to the most insufferable fans in sport- even more so than Cas fans. Imagine wanting a trophy for finishing second.

I've been for the football and sat in the Kop.
The atmosphere is unbelievable and that is part of its iconic status. Only Cardiff Arms Park and now Millennium Stadium rivals it for singing fans.
I've been at least twice for rugby and felt cramped.
It's worth going to but if you are built like a rugby player it'll be tough for a full day.

The only thing I'll say is it won't be full so you'll have more space around you to spread.

Really hoping that Catalan are drained from their "final" last week.
Although it was only a "regular" game, they seemed to build it up way, way higher, almost like a cup final.
Coupled with their usual problems when they play over here and our additional impact in the pack (hopefully), we may just have a chance.

Catalan are in decent nick at the moment though and it will be a tough ask but, it should be a cracking opener to the weekend.

Come on Trin !

I think them having David Mead back in the Centres will be a big boost for them, he had a fantastic game the other day saying he's been out for so long. The main gain for Wakefield however is Greg Bird not being available, really cannot stress that enough.

Hopefully the boys have identified where/what went wrong from last weekend and sorted those out with a bit of the Hairdryer treatment too! With the added punch in the pack, I'd fancy Wakefield to give them a real good go, and come away with the points.

Agree, Catalan are a good side with out him and well capable of beating us on current form but with him even more so. I think this will be the hardest game we have had against Catalan in years, I reckon we will struggle.

I think a big part will be which Wakey turns up, if it's the team that played in London then we've zero chance of winning. Hoping for a reaction to last Saturday's game.

Some good news England and ashurst are back this Saturday, broughy back against saints

...and Bill and Joe Arundel in the next 3-4 weeks...some real headaches ahead for Chester selection wise!

Excellent news. For me we've really missed Ashurst especially defensively, plus add Arona and it's chunk of our tackles that have needed to be done by someone else. England will add some fresh legs down the middle which we've also needed recently.

That's great news
Especially broughy back for the cc
