Parade?

[Stephen230]

Where’s it ending?

Not at the end of Deansgate again?

It’s really frustrating at the moment as the town hall and Albert Square are closed off and there are no other suitable squares that are big enough in the city centre to accommodate the amount of fans who want to see the after parade presentations and party.

Can’t remember where I read this. Might even have been on here. But I’ve seen somewhere that it’s going to go down Oxford Road rather than Deansgate due to something or other.

Why won’t the parade happen if City don’t win the CL? City have already done the double. That alone is worth a parade, regardless of the CL result. Matt Hughes at the Daily Mail is tweeting shite.

Depends how the players feel - they might be allowed to go on a small holiday prior to the internationals.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Players already missing 2 weeks of their holidays compared to less successful teams

If we win the CL it will be Monday, if not there won't be one.

That's the price of success. They'll have plenty of holiday time when they have retired, sat on a beach thinking about all the trophies they've won.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Well I'm hoping for a Monday as I'm in town for an appointment, otherwise I'll have to do a 70 mile eachway round trip 2 days on the bounce.

 

[cibaman]

Even if we, God forbid, lose on Saturday, I'd presume we're still having a parade as we've won the double? Anybody heard anything?

I don’t think the players will be interested in a parade if we lose

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Just realised I booked the Monday off ages ago so hoping it’s then

Shame. That would look like sour beans. And filter into the Anti-City narrative. Empty streets/seats = yawn.

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

Liverpool and others have done their CL parades on Sunday.

Be silly if we didn't do it on a Sunday, regardless if it's just for the double.

But I also know, manchester has Parklife, The Weekend at the Etihad, there's the Soccer Aid at the swamp as well. So the plod will be stretched.

Either way gutted I'll be missing it due to alternate plans ,made months ago

It’s a bit of a no win for the players. Turn out with smiles on their faces after losing and they’d be slaughtered

I’m on earlies over the weekend, on a late on Monday and on an early on Tuesday. If the parade is on Monday, I’m scuppered unless I can change my shift. I was working last weekend too. If we win I hope they announce when the parade is asap.

 

[Pollocks OG]

My wife is a copper. They've been briefed it will be Monday evening.

Guessing it will be Monday. Players want to get away to the beach so it's always ASAP. If not Monday then Sunday is more likely than Tuesday, but few people in town on a Sunday.

Agreed Monday if it goes ahead. No way does everyone want to hang around until the weekend after a long hard season.

Doesn’t necessarily mean that they play in the first match. Apparently City’s English players that have been included in Southgate’s squad will only take part in the second Match. Not sure if they’ll be given a day off for a parade though.

 

[paulchapo]

City players should be exempt from these pointless internationals after such a tough season going on two weeks after everybody else.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

 

[peterswales]

Selfish I know, but my only worry is they do it on Sunday. Monday would be great as we would be on a high , regardless of the result in Istanbul, having landed back in Manchester on Sunday and looking to the next City event to enjoy. Tuesday would be OK but I'll have to start moving shifts

First world problems eh...

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Totally understandable that it would be on Monday, considering that almost the entire squad have international commitments. Even those who aren't away for internationals need as long a break as possible.

Yes it's shit for those who will still be in Istanbul, but if we lose there'll be no parade and if we win you'll have been there to see us lift the cup anyway.

I've no skin in the game as we go away on Sunday afternoon.
