Tranmere Rovers F.C. regained Third Division status at the first attempt in 1975β76. John King replaced Ron Yeats as manager and Ronnie Moore was switched to attack with great success, scoring as Tranmere started with a 1β1 draw at Swansea City. They rose to the top of the table after winning nine times in eleven games, including beating Torquay United 7β1 and Workington 6β0. John James was signed from Chester City, then Clive Griffiths arrived from Manchester United as Rovers remained in the promotion race. Moore scored four times against Brentford, Stockport County and Newport County in quick succession, scoring a total of 34 goals as Tranmere finished fourth.
