Terence John Lowe (born 27 May 1943) is an English former footballer who played at right-back for Port Vale between 1960 and 1966.

Career

In his youth, Lowe played for Stoke City before joining Port Vale in June 1960. ^[1] His debut came in the Potteries derby 1–0 win over Stoke in the Supporters' Clubs' Trophy final on 24 April 1961, at the end of the 1960–61 season. ^[1] He made his debut in the Football League in the 1961–62 season, making six appearances in the Third Division. ^[1] Manager Norman Low was replaced by Freddie Steele in October 1962, and Lowe established himself in Steele's first-team plans with 40 league and cup appearances in the 1962–63 campaign. ^[1] However, he featured only three times in the 1963–64 season, as Selwyn Whalley firmly established himself in the right-back slot. ^[1] Lowe played only twice in 1964–65 as the "Valiants" were relegated into the Fourth Division under Jackie Mudie's stewardship. ^[1] He played 13 matches in the 1965–66 season, and was handed a free transfer away from Vale Park in May 1966. ^[1]
