The later earned the club promotion to the Bayernliga, the third tier of the German football league system in Bavaria. "TSV" spend the 1973–74 season in the Bayernliga but finished last and was immediately related again, never to return to this level again. Back in the Landesliga the club could not perform on the same level as before the promotion, instead constantly struggling against relegation. Four seasons at this level followed in  which a thirteenth place in 1977 was the club's best result but relegation back to the Bezirksliga followed the year after. The club earned promotion to the Bezirksoberliga Mittelfranken for a season in 1990, a league introduced in 1988, after runners-up finish in the Bezirksliga Mittelfranken-Süd. Between 1999 and 2001 the club dropped even further, to the Kreisliga, but made a recovery after three seasons there. The club experienced a revival in the last few seasons of its existence, earning promotion to the Bezirksoberliga Mittelfranken in 2006 and immediately becoming a top side in this league. After  the merger in 2008 the new club, TSG Roth, inheritated the old club's league place. Honours. The club's honours: Final seasons. The final season-by-season performance of the club:
