Harrogate Town beat Notts County 3-1 to earn promotion to Football League.
The Yorkshire side earned promotion to the Football League for the first time in their history.
The deserved win means that they they are the 144th different club to play in Football League.
Harrogate opened the scoring on Sunday afternoon in the fifth minute before adding another in 28th minute.
Goals by George Thomson, Connor Hall and Jack Diamond saw Harrogate spring into the fourth tier and deservedly so.
They dominated the first-half but scored only twice and it looked like they may regret that when Callum Roberts replied for County just after half-time. But Harrogate redoubled their efforts and Diamond made sure.
Harrogate had finished second in the National League standings, a place ahead of Notts County. The gap between them was only three points or, in this Covid world of mathematical averages, 0.12 of a point.
It suggested a nip and tuck game with little between the sides. The first-half, however, proved anything but. Harrogate completely dominated, scored twice and should have had at least one more.
