The 2013-14 campaign delivered a devastating end for Barnsley, as The Tykes finished a crushing 23rd in the Championship and were relegated to the third tier, Football League One, after an eight-season stay. The tumultuous year saw a mid-season managerial change from David Flitcroft to Danny Wilson as the team struggled to find consistency. Leading the attack was striker Chris O'Grady, whose 15 goals across all competitions were a crucial, solitary highlight in a difficult season defined by a struggle for points and a -33 goal difference. It was a painful chapter that ended their long tenure in the second tier and remains an unforgettable part of the club's modern history.
