Wells ,Somerset ,England . They joined the Western League Division Two in 1929 and won the Western League title in 1950. Declining performances culminated in relegation to the second division after the 1956-57 season and after three seasons in the Western League Division Two, Wells City left the league.Wells rejoined the Somerset Senior League in 1960-61 with the reserves competing in the Mid-Somerset Football League. Wells finished 6th in their first season back in the Somerset Senior League. The side finished very much in mid-table until 1965-66 when they were third behind Street and Welton Rovers reserves. They were runners-up behind Paulton Rovers in 1971-72. Relegation from the Premier Division to Division occurred at the end of the 1977-78 season with promotion to the top section being gained at the end of 1979-80. 1981-82 saw another relegation. 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. The club maintained a Premier Division place until promotion back to the
Western Football League Division One in 2008.Wells City would finally reclaim the Somerset Senior Cup in 2006-07, defeating Burnham United 2-1 at Weston-super-Mare FC
