During 2008–09 and the first part of 2009–10, it played at Holm Park, the home of Armagh City, while Ferney Park was brought up to Championship standard. The first match back at its own ground was on 5 December 2009.[1]

On 31 March 2012, the club secured promotion to the top flight of Northern Irish football for the first time in their history. A 3–2 win over Bangor secured the 2011–12 IFA Championship title, and promotion to the 2012–13 IFA Premiership.[2]
