Seven-times champions , Barry Town monopolised the Welsh Premier until financial problems ended with relegation in 2003/4.
After a brief spell in the English system, Barry returned to the Abacus League in 1993, won the Welsh Cup in 1994 and played in the following season's European Cup Winners Cup.
They have since won the League of Wales in all but seven of eight successive years, a run interrupted only by the Saints' success in 1999/2000.
Barry again won the treble in 2002/3.
John Fashanu came to the club as chairman in January 2003, but stepped down after a controverial, 202-day reign leaving widely publicised financial problems and a player exodus.
The club was able to make a voluntary arrangement with its creditors prior to takeover by a local consortium. But despite the appointment of Colin Addison as manager and a clutch of new players, the club could not stave off relegation. |
