During the season, Nocerina was suspected of match-fixing after 8 players were injured, leaving not enough players for the rest of the match. Thus the club was expelled from the league and relegated. On 1 August 2014, the club was assigned to Eccellenza Campania, two tier below Lega Pro, as Lega Pro only had one unified division since the 2014–15 season. However, Crialese himself did not find any club for the second half of 2013–14 season.
