Any confirmation of bus parade and times ?

[Thunder Bolt]

Leaving Palace Pier at 5 to Hove Lawns arriving 6.30. There are various zones with giant screens. Etc

Another PR howler.

Perhaps we can celebrate promotion through the art of interpretive dance?

mindfulness to oblivion ... hope the weather's nice

I'm not going unless Calderon's there

Too late for young children yet zones, searches and booze restrictions. Utterly awful. I'll still go, mind, but it's an ill thought out elf & safety officers wet dream. Extremely extremely disappointed

Anybody else notice that a lot of these type of threads descend in to who's the bigger fan, how long they've supported the Albion etc ? Was a time you could just support them with out all the willy measuring stuff. I think it's gonna get a lot worse next year !

It's a bit like that with the 'early leaver' threads. The, 'I stay 'til the end, so I'm a better fan than you.'

In 1983 the open top bus was around 7.30 on a Friday evening

Last time it was around the same time late afternoon ending at Madeira drive

I was starting the willy measuring for next season by "posting" a legitimate length when I slipped on a banana peel and ended up with an inny instead of an outty. It had been pretty painful until the willy reverted to it's usual performance.

It was that late ? I was only 9 at the time and was at hove town hall in the rain giving them a wave, didn't think it was that late ? Gary Stevens confirmed on the balcony he was staying with the club

Way too late sadly, given that the main event is the bit after the parade

 

[wellquickwoody]

Everyone taking part has to wear a hi-viz top and walk hand-in-hand crocodile fashion. In Zone A you can only sing songs that are prompted to you via the big screens, in Zone B you can choose your own songs as long as there is no profanity in them, Zone C is a free for all in Barber speak so you can sing anything but it is £1 per swear word. Only current replica shirts can be worn in Zone A under your hi-viz to enhance the modern, upmarket image that the Albion wants to promote. Although you can bring your own alcohol (small quantities, no Special Brew or Diamond White) there will be wine bars available sponsored by local vineyards which will also provide a Pimms mixing service for those requiring it. At the end of the event you must return your hi-viz to collection points in your zone and exit the area on foot or by buses provided by Seagull Travel for a small fee (plus booking fee £1) payable to stewards provided by the club. Please leave the area with as little noise as possible to avoid disturbing local residents, junkies and seagulls. Anyone reported to the club for singing songs after 8pm could face a lifetime ban not only from theAmex but every away venue in Europe in the next 5 years. We hope everyone has a light hearted and jolly fan experience.

Pretty certain the Freddie Mercury bus parade wasn't so late in the day

The League 2 and 1 promotion parades were on a Sunday morning, ending at the Town Hall and the Council offices. A much better idea.

No it is not, I can't stand Hove

Same. I guess it's not really aimed at the likes of us who celebrated promotion post-Wigan and have become increasingly dismayed ever since. Pretty sure the players couldn't be arsed with it either, straight off the back of a monster binge in Vegas, except that they're under strict orders to Take One For the Town.

It's bad enough the players have been told they have to go, but it would be particularly insulting if the fans don't turn up.
