MANCHESTER CITY fans braved rain and lightning to watch their Treble-winning team’s open-top bus parade on Monday evening.
The parade was delayed by more than an hour due to the horrific conditions, but that did not deter the thousands of supporters that gathered to catch a glimpse of their squad.

A second domestic trophy soon followed, with Guardiola’s men beating rivals Man Utd in the FA Cup final.
And City solidified their position as one of the greatest sides in history by lifting their first Champions League with a 1-0 win over Inter Milan on Saturday.
The club have been enjoying themselves ever since, with Grealish leading the way with a brilliant rap song from INSIDE City’s team bus.
Stars then reportedly jetted to party island Ibiza for a major celebration after landing in Manchester on Sunday.
But three players stayed home for a chilled-out dinner, with De Bruyne, Ilkay Gundogan and Stefan Ortega the only aces turning up to a hired-out restaurant.
Meanwhile, the Ibiza party crew only landed back in Manchester on Monday afternoon, hours before the start of the parade.
Yet they all managed to look their best for the historic celebration with their fans.
