• Club planning party on Town Moor instead
• Newcastle city council deny blocking parade

Newcastle have upset many of their supporters after announcing plans to celebrate their Carabao Cup triumph with a party on the city’s Town Moor rather than an open-top bus parade. The outcry has prompted the possibility of a modified event and club officials spent Monday in talks with Newcastle city council and Northumbria police regarding the possible addition of a scaled-down parade.

Chi Onwurah, the Labour MP for Newcastle Central, said a lot of fans had contacted her and Karen Kilgour, the leader of Newcastle city council, released a statement saying the council had not blocked a parade.
