Thousands of Lincoln City fans have celebrated the club's league title and promotion during an open-top bus tour of the city.

The League Two club became the first team to win promotion in the English Football League this season after a draw with Cheltenham Town last month.

The parade started from South Park and made its way through the city.

Danny Cowley has now guided the Sincil Bank outfit to two promotions in his three seasons at the club.

The club also won the Checkatrade Trophy at Wembley last season.

Lincoln lost their last match of the season - a 0-3 drubbing at home by Colchester United - but still finished six points clear of second-placed Bury.

Jim, an Imps fan of 16 years, said: "It is amazing, a complete revelation to get three trophies in three seasons - quite unbelievable."
