There is also little evidence of any major achievement during a lengthy period in the Bristol & Suburban League and it was not until the 1970s, some 100 years later that the side became a force in local soccer.

With the formation of a new club, Almondsbury Greenway, they immediately gained election to the Gloucestershire County League, where they finished runners up in their first season.

It was during this period that the club achieved its greatest moment, reaching the final of the FA Vase at Wembley Stadium in 1979, where they were beaten by Billericay Town.

After a period of 12 years moving between mid-table mediocrity and flirting with relegation, the first trophy for the senior side under the chairmanship of Bob Jenkins was secured in the form of the Floodlit Cup in 2005.

In the 2006–07 season the club managed its highest league position in over 20 years and reached the final of the Gloucestershire Football Association Challenge Trophy where they finished runners up after a 2–0 defeat to Slimbridge.

In 2007–08 the club had another very successful season but lost out on promotion to the Southern League to North Leigh by a goal difference of two after both teams finished on 96 points.

The 2009–10 season began with high hopes with Paul Weeks in charge of the team but he decided to try his luck at Cinderford Town after only ten unbeaten games.
