No Parade

[urban fox]

not surprised but city council have just announced that there will be no open top bus parade due to covid risks

[Guest bennytwohats]

Disappointing but fair enough really

[Captain...]

A real shame, I understand not doing one now/post season, but you would have thought a "pre season" parade would be ok early August. Maybe after the community Shield, or before our usual glamour friendly at the KP.

[Foxxed]

Massively shitty but fair enough. They're hardly going to say "covid? deaths? yeah no probs. let's go".

[StriderHiryu]

Maybe we can have one at the start of next season?

 

In normal times we absolutely would be packing out Victoria Park again with a special Walkers themed crisp packet for the occasion!

[RoboFox]

The right decision, too.

[Dr Marco]

 

[FoxFossil]

Shit decision. Got to buy my own crisps now.

[bovril]

We'll have one, maybe not straight away. But it will be paraded. 

[HybridFox]

I do hope when they open the stadium tours again, the FA Cup will be there for fans to take a photograph with.

 

I don't think enough was done with the League Title tbh

[Fox_in_a_Box]

I can imagine we will have loads of fans outside the KP on Sunday. Might as well pop out with it for those without a ticket. 

[lgfualol]

Can we do a virtual one where the lads sit in a bus with a green screen and we all cheer at our laptops

[yorkie1999]

Surely, if we stand 2 metres apart from skeggy to Leicester, there would be ample space for a parade.. Mike Bassett style.

[Webbo]

I bet we're allowed to go down to the club shop to have our photos taken with the cup at a tenner a pop.

 

And I'll be queuing outside to do just that.

I forgot all about the Community Shield.  Another trip to Wembley and another piece of silverware!

[fox_up_north]

Gutted by that, tbh. I get it - I absolutely do - but given that most of us were limited in who we could watch it with and how we could do so, it's a real blow to not be able to come together with other fans and share that moment. 

 

I don't live in the county and don't know any other City fans nearby. I am happy to wait a few months to be able to share the joy.

How about open top mystery bus tour with cup around Leicestershire? 😊

[tom27111]

Can't Top just do some low level flyovers in his plane? 

 

We'll all stay at home and get to see it.

[fuchsntf]

we can do the Parade, a Week before start of Next season.....or not..??

[Pliskin]

There will be, probably involve me after several pints windmilling around Viccy park.

Let me know a time and date 

[NewquayFox]

Will The Fa Cup be paraded at The KP on Sunday? Hope so... 🏆👍💙

[iancognito]

I understand the understanding but having something out in the open air should be relatively risk free by now or at least in a couple of weeks? There won't be the time or will to do it in the summer because of players being away at the Euros or away on holiday.

Never for one minute expected the powers that be to back the idea though.
