The 2014–15 season was the ninety-third season of competitive association football and seventy-eighth season in the Football League played by York City Football Club, a professional football club based in York, North Yorkshire, England. Their seventh-place finish in 2013–14 and loss to Fleetwood Town in the play-offs meant it was their third successive season in League Two. The season ran from 1 July 2014 to 30 June 2015. Nigel Worthington made eight signings in his second summer transfer window as York manager. With the team only one place above the relegation zone by mid-October 2014, Worthington resigned and was replaced by former Scunthorpe United manager Russ Wilcox. After a six-match unbeaten run from late-March to mid-April 2015, York ensured survival from relegation before finishing in eighteenth position in the twenty-four-team 2014–15 Football League Two. York were knocked out of the 2014–15 FA Cup, Football League Cup and Football League Trophy in their opening round matches. Thirty-two players made at least one appearance in nationally organised first-team competition, and there were thirteen different goalscorers. Defender Keith Lowe missed only one of the fifty first-team matches over the season. Jake Hyde finished as leading scorer with ten goals, of which nine came in league competition and one came in the FA Cup. The winner of the Clubman of the Year award, voted for by the club's supporters, was Lowe. ==Background and pre-season== (詳細は2013–14 season was Nigel Worthington's first full season as manager of York City, after leading the team to safety from relegation in 2012–13 following his appointment in March 2013. Having only been above the relegation zone on goal difference come the start of 2014, the team went on a seventeen-match unbeaten run from February onwards. This saw York reach the play-offs with a seventh-place finish in the 2013–14 Football League Two table.〔 York were beaten 1–0 on aggregate by Fleetwood Town in the play-off semi-final, the decisive goal being scored by former York player Matty Blair at Bootham Crescent in the first leg. After 2013–14 ended York released Tom Allan, Calvin Andrew, Chris Dickinson, Shaq McDonald, Sander Puri and Adam Reed, with David McGurk retiring from professional football. Ryan Bowman and Lanre Oyebanjo left the club to sign for Torquay United and Crawley Town respectively, but Michael Coulson signed a new contract.
