The 2013–14 season was the ninety-second season of competitive association football and seventy-seventh season in the Football League played by York City Football Club, a professional football club based in York, North Yorkshire, England. Their seventeenth-place finish in 2012–13 meant it was their second consecutive season in League Two. The season ran from 1 July 2013 to 30 June 2014. Nigel Worthington, starting his first full season as York manager, made eight permanent summer signings. By the turn of the year York were only above the relegation zone on goal difference, before a seventeen match unbeaten run saw the team finish in seventh position in the twenty-four-team 2013–14 Football League Two. This meant York qualified for the play-offs, and they were eliminated in the semi-final by Fleetwood Town. York were knocked out of the 2013–14 FA Cup, Football League Cup and Football League Trophy in their opening round matches. Thirty-five players made at least one appearance in nationally organised first-team competition, and there were twelve different goalscorers. Defender Ben Davies missed only five of the fifty-two competitive matches played over the season. Wes Fletcher finished as leading scorer with thirteen goals, of which ten came in league competition and three came in the FA Cup. The winner of the Clubman of the Year award, voted for by the club's supporters, was Lanre Oyebanjo. ==Background and pre-season== (詳細は2012–13 season was York City's first season back in the Football League, having won the Conference Premier play-offs in 2011–12 after eights years in the Football Conference.
