In a bizarre twist, a self-proclaimed Liverpool supporter has launched a campaign to relocate the club's potential victory parade to London, citing a higher concentration of fans in the south than in Merseyside.

With Liverpool also eyeing glory in the Champions League after reaching the last 16 and facing Newcastle at Wembley for the Carabao Cup final, the petitioner, who goes by King Koppite, insists on Change.org that any future festivities should be held in the capital.

The petition argues: "I, like many other loyal Liverpool FC fans, live in London, far from our team's home city in the North.



The South of England and beyond is home to a majority of Liverpool FC's fervent fan base, creating a costly and time-consuming journey for us every time we aim to join in the club's victory parades.

"What we propose is not a dismissal of Liverpool's local heritage, but a recognition of the club's national - even global - reach.

With the prevalence of Liverpool FC supporters in the South, moving the title parade to London would simply be a more pragmatic and inclusive approach.

"Statistics show that London holds the largest concentration of football fans across the whole of England (BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Fans Census, 2019).

By moving the parade to our nation's capital, more fans would be offered the opportunity to participate in the celebration, extending the sense of community and shared victory.

"Therefore, we propose a reassessment of the location of Liverpool Football Club's title parades to better accommodate a larger portion of the fanbase, and create more inclusive and accessible celebrations.

Sign this petition to help bring the Liverpool FC title parade closer to fans in the South."

Some Liverpool fans may be tempted to believe that the petition, which was opened on March 3, is the work of a mischievous Evertonian rather than a diehard member of the Kop.
