Ryan Thomas Lowe (born 18 September 1978 in Liverpool, England) is an English footballer who plays as a striker for Football League One side Sheffield Wednesday.

Playing career

Lowe played for non–league side Burscough before moving into The Football League with Shrewsbury Town in time for 2000–01. After almost five years with the Shrews (which included a season in the Nationwide Conference), Lowe switched to fellow Football League Two side Chester City on March 22, 2005.[1]

He spent a year at Chester, which included scoring twice in a shock FA Cup 3–0 win over Nottingham Forest on 3 December 2005[2] before leaving the club by mutual consent shortly after the return to the club of manager Mark Wright.[3]

Lowe joined Football League One side Crewe Alexandra in time for 2006–07 season. He enjoyed a successful debut for the Railwaymen, scoring the opening goal; assisting David Vaughan's goal and earning the man of the match in Crewe's 2–2 draw with Northampton Town on August 5, 2006. Lowe continued his form over the first few games of the season, scoring a further two goals in late August. However, the arrival of Rodney Jack to the club saw him lose his starting place for much of September. He returned to the starting line up on September 30, 2006 against Carlisle United. Lowe scored his only hat–trick for Crewe as they ran out 5–1 winners at The Alexandra Stadium.

After spells in and out of the Crewe side, Lowe joined Stockport County on loan on March 27, 2008.[4] But his transfer was not made permanent and he was not included in the side which clinched promotion in the play–off final against Rochdale at Wembley Stadium.

On July 2, 2008, Lowe returned to Chester on a two year deal, becoming the club's fifth summer signing after Anthony Barry, Jay Harris, David Mannix and Paul Taylor.[5] Lowe scored twice including a penalty, in his first home game back for Chester against Leeds United in a 5–1 loss in the Carling Cup on August 12, 2008 and repeated the feat in a 5–1 thrashing of Barnet later in the month.

Lowe went on to comfortably finish as Chester's leading scorer with 18 goals (16 in the league), in a season which ended with the side suffering relegation from Football League Two. He received the club's player of the season award before the final match of the campaign against Darlington.[6] The following week it was announced Lowe had left Chester by mutual agreement, with several Football League clubs interested in signing him.[7]

On June 10, 2009, Bury FC confirmed the signing of Lowe on free transfer[8] Lowe got his first goal for Bury. on the 18th August 2009 away at Hereford United in a 3–1 win for Bury. Also, Lowe scored in Bury's 1–0 victory over rivals Rochdale, in the fixture at Gigg Lane. He scored his 100th league goal on 9 October 2010, bagging a brace against local rivals Accrington Stanley.

At the beginning of the 2010–11 season, he was named vice-captain by Alan Knill. On 1 March 2011, Lowe broke a 53 year old club record by being credited for an own goal meaning he had "scored" in eight consecutive league games in a 3–0 victory over Shrewsbury Town at the Greenhous Meadow. After a goal in the following 3–0 victory over Hereford on 5 March he extended the record to nine games. On 25 April he scored Bury's third in a 3–2 win over league leaders Chesterfield in the 87th minute, promoting his side to League One.[9] Lowe's goals and attitude quickly made him a hero at Gigg Lane, with many fans admiring his loyalty to the club and its fans.[citation needed]

On 31 August 2011, Lowe joined Bury's fellow League One team Sheffield Wednesday for an undisclosed six figure fee.[10]
