The 2014–15 Lowland League, is the second season of the Lowland Football League. Edinburgh City won their inaugural Lowland Football League title on 20 March after nearest rivals Whitehill Welfare lost at East Kilbride. As a result, City competed in a two-legged play-off for a place in the fourth tier of the 2015–16 Scottish Professional Football League which they lost to Brora Rangers on penalties after a 2–2 aggregate tie. Edinburgh City will therefore remain in the Lowland League for the next season.
For its second year, the league announced its expansion to 14 teams, with Edinburgh University and BSC Glasgow joining up. Furthermore, the league announced that promotion to Scottish League Two would be introduced, with the format of promotion is that the league champions will playoff with the Highland Football League champions (or other eligible team from outside the SPFL to be nominated by the Scottish FA), with the winner then playing the team finishing 10th and bottom in Scottish League Two in a promotion and relegation playoff to determine the entrants for the 2015–16 League Two season. Additionally, the bottom placed club will face relegation to the 2015–16 East of Scotland Football League or South of Scotland Football League depending on their geographical location.
