After a number of successful years they stepped up to senior football in 1999, entering the Midland Football Combination. In 2003–04 they won this league and were promoted to the Midland Football Alliance.

In 2018 the club was relegated and placed into the Midland League Premier Division. In the 2019–20 season Romulus got to the final of the Midland League Cup, but the final was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
