‘Making a mockery of themselves’ – Man City and their fans ridiculed for ‘woeful’ open-top bus parade turnout to celebrate Premier League triumph

  • Man City win fourth-straight PL title
  • Man City hold trophy parade
  • Criticised for fan turnout at parade

WHAT HAPPENED?

Manchester City have undoubtedly been the best club in England over the last seven years having won 17 trophies, including six Premier League trophies. However, one key area in which the club has always been criticised has been their support, which has lacked the same numbers held by their other top-six rivals.

WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

X user @RealKevinPalmer said: “Baffling why Man City keep making a mockery of themselves with these woefully attended trophy parades. The few hundred fans in this image are walking up the road alongside the buses with the players on board. Inevitable they will be laughed at.”

Man Utd fan @markgoldbridge said: “United Stand [his YouTube show] had 20K Live viewers on a Sunday night show. Man City Official Premier League victory parade had 12k.”

@plixun_ said on X: “IM IN TEARS LOOK AT MAN CITY’S LEAGUE TITLE PARADE”

@UtdFaithfuls said on X: “All 115 Man City fans at their bus parade. This is just too embarrassing, what a small club.”

@JoeLFC94 on X said: “I mean absolutely no disrespect to City fans. But this is the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever seen, no joke.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Regardless of what opposition fans are saying about the title celebrations, it seems as though Man City players and staff had a lot of fun celebrating their title victory on the last matchday of the Premier League over Arsenal.

WHAT NEXT FOR MAN CITY?

After losing the FA Cup final to Man Utd, it will be certain that Pep Guardiola and company will get hard at work to ensure they improve over what has been their least successful season in the last three years.
