NUFC no bus tour denying a lot of people chance to celebrate and dry event.

What do people make of this?
They should have open top bus tour same as 1974, 1969, 1999.
Give older fans and families chance to see cup and players. Shot themselves in foot in my view.

They are having a stage event and it's ticketed, limited numbers and dry.
Anything else planned don't know about it.
There needs to be a petition for bus tour for all!

There's in the region of 500,000 tickets available, it's a family event so why shouldn't it be dry. The Hoppings are dry, the Freeman have probably imposed this.

For me a sensible decision

I think it makes a lot of sense to use the Moor. Not least parking.

The biggest problem with an open bus parade is the disruption with local bus services that go through the city centre as a number of roads would have to be closed and it's the busiest day of the week in the city centre.

NUFC Parade and Town Moor

IN The end it worked together and what a turn out.
Good luck for rest of season and pursuit of CL.
