From the Official BCFC Website:
THE SEASON BY NUMBERS
The 2012/2013 campaign will most probably go down in history as one of the
most memorable for Bradford City and its supporters for a long, long time.
Two trips to Wembley, one major cup final, three wins over Premiership
opponents, sixty-four games and, of course, one promotion!
Those numbers aren't the only worthwhile digits to come out of an
mind-boggling campaign for Phil Parkinson's men though.
Below are just some of the amazing numbers to come out of, well, a truly
amazing season!
82,997 - The crowd figure for the Capital One Cup Final at Wembley.
23,971 - The attendance at the Coral Windows Stadium for the Capital One Cup
Quarter-Final with Arsenal - a modern stadium record.
14,657 - The attendance for the home leg of City's Play-Off Semi-Final with
Burton Albion.
13,461 - City's highest league attendance of the season (vs Rotherham
United).
6,500 - The approximate figure for City's away following at Villa Park
399 - The total number of international caps in the Arsenal starting eleven
for City's Capital One Cup triumph over the Gunners.
92 - The amount of goals scored by City in all competitions.
64 - Games in the season.
32 - Players used in all competitions for City.
26 - The amount of goals scored by Nahki Wells in the season.
25 - The amount of midweek evening games City took part in during the
season.
23 - The number of clean sheets for City in all competitions.
18 - Clean sheets picked up in the league - only champions Gillingham (19)
registered more.
15 - The number of cup games for City in the season.
14 - Penalties converted by City in shoot-outs.
12 - The amount of players who scored two or more goals for City this season
7 - The number of City matches this season that were televised.
6 - Periods of extra time
5 - Assists by Gary Jones during City's remarkable run in the Capital One
Cup. The tally saw Jones up to joint top in the list of assist-makers for
the competition this season.
4 - Penalty shoot-outs during the season.
3 - Number of Premier League teams beaten on the way to Capital One Cup
Final (Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Aston Villa).
2 - Number of visits to Wembley Stadium.
1 - Or League 1 to be more precise - City's division next season following
promotion through the Play-Offs.

The football club can now reveal two of its pre-season friendly fixtures ahead of the 2013/2014 campaign.
Last season's League 1 champions Doncaster Rovers will travel to the Coral Windows Stadium a week before the start of the regular season on
Saturday 27th July 2013 for a friendly with Phil Parkinson's squad.
The match with Rovers should given City fans an opportunity to catch a glimpse of former Bantams favourite David Syers - now in the red and white
of Doncaster - while Billy Paynter, who enjoyed a successful loan spell at Valley Parade back in 2007, may also be part of the visitors' squad.
Prices for the Doncaster friendly will be £10.00 for adults and £5.00 for concessions.
Before the visit of Rovers, City will travel to Nethermoor to play Guiseley on Saturday 13 July 2013 in another pre-season fixture. Guiseley, who
City defeated in a friendly 4-0 last July, have City old boy Mark Bower in their ranks.
The Lions finished the 2012/2013 campaign in second place in the Blue Square Bet North before losing in the Play-Offs at the semi-final stage to
eventual winners FC Halifax Town.
Both friendly fixtures will kick off at 3:00pm.
The club can also confirm that City will be returning to the Republic of Ireland for a week-long trip in July. In a repeat of last season's
visit, the pre-season tour will see City play two matches against Irish's opponents during their stay in the country.
Further information regarding the Ireland trip will be announced in due course.
