Talking of Merseybus cross city of 91 I remember the following:

3+5 (3) as above
11 + 56 (11) Netherton - Huyton
14 + 79 (79) Croxteth - Netherley
18 + 53A (18) Netherton (then Crosby) - Croxteth Park
19 + 72 (19) Tower Hill - Halewood
20/21 + 82 (20/21) Tower Hill/Northwood - Speke
25 Diverted and extended to Maghull if I remember!
55 Old Roan - Garston
58 + 81A (81A) Litherland - Speke
75 + 91 (91) Crosby - Huyton
80 + 321/322 (80/80A/80B) Ormskirk - Garston/Airport
86 + 93 (86) Thornton - Garston (links with 55)

Im sure it was the 53 that was merged with the 86
86+53 & 55.
Think it was 93+18, MTL kept number 18 for Crosby-City Centre until after the Arriva brought MTL & changed most routes around 2000-2001 when it became 50, when the 18 split, City-Croxteth Park section became 18A until Arriva dropped the A.
