The 2013-14 campaign delivered a devastating end to an era for Tranmere Rovers, with the Super Whites finishing a crushing 21st in League One, which resulted in relegation to the fourth tier of English football. Leading the charge, despite the team's struggles, was the veteran striker Ryan Lowe, whose 19 league goals proved vital in a turbulent season that saw the club make a mid-season managerial change from Ronnie Moore to John McMahon. It was a dark and difficult year, but Lowe's goalscoring prowess remains a painful yet defining chapter for the Birkenhead club.
