The 2021-22 campaign was a season of soaring hope and ultimate disappointment for the Super Whites, who finished a competitive 9th in League Two, agonizingly close to a play-off spot. Managed by the returning Micky Mellon, Tranmere's formidable home record proved a massive factor in keeping the side in contention until the final weeks. Leading the attack was Kane Hemmings, whose 8 crucial goals and influential performances anchored a campaign built on defensive solidity and ambition, marking a spirited year of consolidation in the fourth tier.
