Promotion back to the Premier Division of the County League was a long time in arriving, not until the start of the 1994-95 season would Wells City g race the top flight Somerset County Football. Soon the yo-yo effect happened once more with relegation at the end of the 1997-98 season followed by bouncing straight back up in 1998-99.
