Rowley equalled Arthur Chandler's then club record of 38 goals in one season in the 1951–52 season, then broke it the following season, scoring 41 times. Thirty-nine of these came in the league where he won the Second division golden boot for the first time. Leicester won the Division Two championship in 1954 as Rowley netted 36 more.
