| Kamara secured a play-off spot with a final day victory over Hull City, before City defeated Blackpool in the play-off semi-finals.[71] The final against Notts County was City's first game at Wembley. Goals from Des Hamilton and Mark Stallard gave them a 2–0 win, which secured promotion to Division One.[71] Kamara used 42 players in 1996–97 when City avoided relegation with a 3–0 victory in the final game against Queens Park Rangers.[71][72] Kamara was sacked in January 1998 after an FA Cup defeat to Manchester City, when Richmond claimed the manager had taken the club as far as he could.[73] Richmond again elevated from within and Paul Jewell, who had been at the club since 1988, was installed as manager, originally on a caretaker basis.[74] He was appointed full-time in May 1998 and Richmond backed his new appointment with a multi-million transfer budget.[74] Jewell signed strikers Lee Mills, from Port Vale and Isaiah Rankin, from Arsenal, for £1 million and £1.3 million respectively,[75] and signed former captain Stuart McCall from Rangers on a free transfer to lead the side.[76] Despite a poor start,[74] the club secured promotion to the top division for the first time in 77 years with a 3–2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the final game of the 1998–99 season.[29] samsung galaxy tab reviewRecuperacao de Dados | |
