Wells finished 6th in their first season back in the Somerset Senior League.

Promotion back again was a long time in arriving, not until 1994 would Wells City grace the top flight of Somerset football.

Soon the yo-yo effect happened once more with relegation at the end of 1997–98 followed by bouncing straight back up in 1998–99.

Wells City would finally reclaim the Somerset Senior Cup in 2006–07, defeating Burnham United 2–1 at Weston-super-Mare.

On 24 April 2010 Wells City earned promotion to the Premier Division of the Western Football League after finishing 1st.
