In this first ever season in European competition, Newry Town (as they were then known) were drawn against the Croatia side Hrvatski Dragovoljac. A 1-0 defeat in Croatia was followed by an historic 2-0 win at home to send the club into the second round. There they met Bundesliga side MSV Duisburg. Again, Newry were drawn away in the first leg, coming away with a respectable 2-0 defeat to the German professionals. A 1-0 win at home wasn't enough to force extra time but the side had exceeded expectations in the tournament.

Since the 1999/00 season, the club went into decline, culminating in a last place finish in the league in 2002/03.

In the 2006/7 season, big things were expected of [[Roy Coyle]s team, with the manager seen as the most successful manager ever in the Irish league, however a run of defeats and poor form left the manager leaving to be replaced by Gerry Flynn at the start of 2007.
