Looking at that route I can't get John Travolta out of my head!

You've got chills?

"Heres the route "

Cov fans

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

I genuinely couldn't think of anything I would be less interested in attending other than a Harry Styles Concert

Its the sign of the times m8

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

the Holyhead pub are having a party, the bus goes straight past, perfect

Are they selling tickets.

 

[bigfatronssba]

Loads of pubs and parks along the route to view from. Not sure what people are moaning about

 

[quinn1971]

Are they selling tickets.

I reckon every pub on the route is, it’ll be like the old Sundays, packed and can’t get to the bar

 

[Macca]

It is a pisser if you are on the wrong side but you can't tour the whole city. I think I will get on my bike and head Holyhead Road way

 

[PaulPUSB]

Starting on Holbrook way is ridiculous, theres not even any pavements

The streets of Coundon wont be wide enough pavement wise with the millions of cycle lanes now added in, and ending the parade over a mile from the destination is mental.

Stoke, Wyken Longford etc always been a hotbed of CCFC support and dont even get anything

Oh no. I've just sold my house on Barker Butts Lane and moved to Wyken to be in amongst the hottest bed of CCFC support.

Great for content creators,!

I'm a tad confused.

I think we need more info.

Does seem daft to have the players at Hearsall Common 1pm and the promotion party at the Memorial Park at the same time, without the players

Only logical thinking is that the parade ends at Hearsall Common and then they team bus the players in a coach to the Memorial Park.

Because if it's the parade bus, it's still the parade

I would think 99.9% of City fans will want to see the parade with the players and the trophy.

Waiting for more info, because it does seem a little odd at the moment

Simples. The team bus can go straight through Earlsdon past the Old Clarence (Or Port O' Call when I used to drink in there) and the City Arms.

Might get Ephron Mason Clarkes name tattooed on my nob to celebrate. Or more likely just EMC. Not even sure about the capitals

1: make your way to a location of the route

Or

2. Buy a ticket for the festival which includes the players at 4pm

or

3: Moan

Can I do all three?

Depends if you want to make it bigger or smaller when it's on show?
Do you want a FB page setting up and a go fund me?

Might need more than that

Really strange route, have to say that.

Its obvious that route wont get changed now but some natural parts of the City for the parade not being included as mentioned by a few on here already.

 

[Corrado]

Looking at the route again, I’d fully expect the coach to head to the A45 after Hearsall Common and then round to Kenilworth Road to get to the park.

Why would they not just go over the bridge by the farmhouse and down beechwood?

 

[CovRes]

Why would they not just go over the bridge by the farmhouse and down beechwood?

Would a bus get over that bridge? Long wheelbase and lowish ground clearance would not be a good combination there.

 

[Ashdown]

All very odd and a bit ‘2026’ this not taking the parade into the heart of the city. The city centre needs all the help it can get financially but instead they take it on a route seemingly with narrow pavements and limited standing room.
I’m sure we’ll work out a spot to pay tribute to this fantastic achievement but CV1 would have been rocking and rolling with the crowds. After all, this is the hub of our transport network. Pool meadow, Coventry railway station etc

Agree, all them restaurants in Broadgate are going to miss out on bookings, having a meal while you watch the parade.

I can see it now, all those on the top deck get flung over the side onto the train tracks.

Pritty sure the normal busses go over the bridge there.

Do you know Cov?

Why in heavens name would you go to The Farmhouse and down Beechwood Avenue or even down the A45 to the MP from HC??

The common is next to Earlsdon Avenue North leading into Earlsdon Avenue South and the Memorial Park is at the end of the road.

But then what do I know, I'm just a fucking old doughbag.

They could go either way just depends on traffic control, you old doughbag.

 

[marksb89]

I’ve decided I’m not bothering with the parade. The route is utter shite, and there is no way I’m lining Dinosaur Arm Doug’s pockets even further by paying £5 to go watch some local shite in the Memorial Park. It’s a no from me.

 

[marksb89]

Has there been any other parades in history that have snaked round the outskirts of a city and completely avoided the town centre? It’s laughable.

 

[wingy]

They do

Oh of course I remember now they put lights probably 15yrs ago don't think they'd have made it comfortably apart from giving way to them as they're bigger than a car.

Im fairness , coventry is a hotbed of coventry support

 

[Dougin]

I think they are ending it at Hearsall common as it can accommodate loads of fans to meet the bus there. It’s only then a 25 min walk to the memorial park for any fans that want to do both.

Because they are clearly going to end the parade in the car park at HC - meaning the only option from there is down Beechwood Av

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

I genuinely couldn't think of anything I would be less interested in attending other than a Harry Styles Concert

100% knew the concert wouldnt be for you. Not enough 80s American Rock headliners?

Not as much as L+W supporters club though mate!

 

[MTK]

I think they are having a hard stop to the parade at HC. Perhaps the players need a quick break somewhere before heading into the park, and to meet up with their families etc. If the buses go down Earlsdon Avenue South to the Park, it will extend the parade and the bus will crawl along the road. I'm in two minds about the park but I don't want to have FOMO so will almost certainly go
