When it merged with the Metropolitan–London League to form the London Spartan League in 1975, the club were placed in to Division Two.[5] After winning Division Two in 1975–76, the club switched to Division Two of the Athenian League, although at the end of the 1976–77 season the league was reduced to a single division. They won the League Cup in 1976–77 and 1982–83, and were Athenian League runners-up in 1983–84. However, the league folded at the end of the season and the club joined Division Two North of the Isthmian League.
