Did you hear? Tottenham Hotspur are European champions after defeating Manchester United 1-0 in Bilbao in the final of the Europa League on Wednesday!
You might have read about it here. It was a whole thing.
So the Spurs players are back in London and as previously reported the club will be having a celebratory parade down the Tottenham High Road and around the stadium TODAY. The parade will begin at 12:30 p.m. ET / 5:30 p.m. BST as the club leaves Edmonton Green, and progressing towards the stadium. I don’t know what all it will involve, but almost certainly an open-topped bus, a lot of fans celebrating, and spectacular scenes of jubilation. What it hopefully won’t include is someone like James Maddison or Yves Bissouma accidentally dropping the Europa League trophy off the side of the bus.
I can’t remember the last time Tottenham Hotspur had a parade. I don’t think it happened in 2009 after the League Cup. Maybe some old-timer in here can share in the comments.
If you’d like to watch, the parade and celebrations will be streamed on SpursPLAY, Tottenham’s in-house premium video service, as well as on YouTube. There will also be a live blog on Spurs’ website. The live link isn’t up yet, but I’ll see about possibly embedding it in this article so people can watch the celebrations direct from Carty Free (and hopefully before I go to my two hour lunchtime meeting today, gaah).
