We've just had the bus go past The Craftsman pub on Beake Avenue, the atmosphere was incredible, streets absolutely rammed.
All the phones went up, everyone wants to capture THIS moment!
Coventry is a sea of sky blue - from all the shirts, flags and smoke.
Thousands of fans are cheering their heroes on as the parade winds its way to its finish, at Hearsall Common - before everyone decamps to the War Memorial Park.
We Are Back, loud and proud - here are some of the pictures coming to us from the first hour of the parade:

Dave and TS are both recipients of our CWR bucket hats - both season ticket holders and waxed lyrically about 1987, the year of the famous FA Cup win, and the journey it’s taken for the Sky Blues to make it back to the big time.
“Fantastic day for the city, for the football club, for everybody," they said. "Whether you’re a football fan or not, it’s just great to be here celebrating our fantastic team.”
We've heard from Dave Lumb, who is on the route and excitement is building for the Coventry bus: "People just starting to line Moseley Avenue in Coventry in anticipation of the bus arriving.
"The droning from the vuvuzelas is excruciating. Lots of excitement though!"
While Nat Craig at the Wallace pub says: "Everyone is geared up and the horns are blowing, you can barely hear yourself think the atmosphere is incredible now!
"All that’s needed is the bus. Can’t imagine how it will get any louder at the Wallace!"
Will Oelrich is also there for CWR and says: "Word has got to the people at The Wallace that it's ahead of schedule.
"The streets are lined in Sky Blues shirts, scarfs and flares… the roadblocks have began and the fans are beginning to feel the excitement!"

The city is beginning to get busy as fans line the streets, eager to secure a spot along the parade route.
Karen Akerman, Mark Akerman and Pauline Sivorn are among them.
"I have been following them 55 years but this is the first year I've had a season ticket - What a time to be alive," they said.
"Super Franky Lampard!”
Here's how that looked, at about 13:00 - the party is under way!
For those who are looking out for the bus in the city, it appears to be about 15 minutes ahead of schedule - but that could change as it goes on, be aware.

The season ticket holder says: “what a season, couldn’t ask for anymore!”
He’s planning to then get to the concert in the park.

We’ve been open here at the Craftsman for not yet an hour and the flocks of Sky Blue clad masses are beginning to filter through the doors.
Landlord Paul here is hoping that he and his bar staff “keep on pouring” throughout the day especially in the run up to the passing through of the players in a couple of hours.
Fans Kelvin and Daniel will be heading over to the War Memorial Park hopefully in time for the 15:00 cut off, in what will be an emotional day:
“At lot of today will be the enjoyment of such an achievement. But we’ll also be sparing a thought for those who aren’t here to experience the festivities," they said.
We also have four generations of Coventry City fans here at the Craftsman.
Val Lloyd was at the parade in 1987, and is joined with her entire family - son Craig, granddaughters Kerrie and Leanne and great-grandchildren Tommy and Grace.
They’re joined with their friends, the Penny family:
They're up for it on Norman Place Road and Holyfast in Coventry - check out these homes!
