BRADFORD celebrated their first appearance at Wembley by reserving a place in the Endsleigh League first division next season with a 2-0 victory over Notts County.
Goals from Des Hamilton and Mark Stallard completed a marvellous day for the Yorkshire club, reorganised and revitalised under rookie manager Chris Kamara.
Bradford finished sixth in the second division and were rank outsiders to follow Swindon and Oxford, who were promoted automatically, especially after going 2-0 down at home to Blackpool in the first leg of the semi final.
Now Kamara's fine side can look forward to matches against the likes of Manchester City and Wolves.
