The jubilant players, who were wearing red and white Cliftonville bucket hats, were singing: “When the Reds, go up, to lift the Irish Cup, oh we’ll be there.”
The bus parade coincides with Cliftonville manager Jim Magilton’s birthday, who was not only celebrating the Irish Cup victory, but also his former side Ipswich Town’s promotion to the Premier League on Saturday.
