Alextopman Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 How United were ridiculed for getting a trophy and celebrating automatic promotion into the best league in the world. Now Wednesday are having a parade for getting into the league we got promoted from comfortably. I think they deserve it but would love to hear from the hypocrites who slagged us but will celebrate tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One for coming third in division 3 is properly daft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cressida Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Let them celebrate it's only for their own fans and is not having a go at anyone else, there is all summer without any matches to enjoy, they should make the most of it😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alextopman is commenting because of the reaction from some to the Blades having a parade. Personally I think there's been enough bad days for both Sheffield clubs over the years so it's nice to have something to cheer about. It's not my cup of tea, I go to watch the Blades with my mates but didn't go to the parade. It's harmless enough and good luck to those who enjoy that kind of thing. Hope it keeps fine for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a victory parade yesterday though. Half an hour of turning Wembley into a version of Ibiza.. I’m still recovering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Promotion by winning the league or playoffs is the same. It's a chance for the fans that couldn't get to Wembley to celebrate the promotion. I think it was more the trophy than parade United were getting mocked about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I was listening to Talksport this morning while Chansiri was being interviewed and the interviewer said to him that every Wednesday supporter in the world was at Wembley yesterday and Chansiri agreed with him! 😮 Doesn't he realise that you lot are by far the biggest and most supported club in the world? 🤣 Enjoy the second parade if your heads recovered. 4 minutes ago, NERVY-OWL said: I think it was more the trophy than parade United were getting mocked about.

Jim Hardie Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 The only victory parade I ever attended was after a defeat. A young team that had had their hearts broken. It’s going to stay that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean the one for runners up in the Championship?. Why would they mock that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you do, that's why I defended it when it came up as you can get a trophy for finishing 1st down to 6th, unless your second then it's nothing, that's why I kind of get why they give a trophy to 2nd place now. I just mean I don't think the parade as such was mentioned, more the trophy part but I could be mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
