The club disbanded in 1909 and re appeared again in 1917, disbanding again in 1922.
Erin go Bragh reappeared in 1943 and were one of 6 new teams to be re-organised or founded at the end of 1943 for the forthcoming 1944 season. They played their games on the Porterstown Road just down from where St. Mochtas soccer club now play. They were Junior 'A' League winners and overall Junior League runners up in 1945. The club continued competing until around 1947 disbanding again.
In the 1950s Erin Go Bragh was re organised by the parish priest of Porterstown Father Redmond, Paddy Downing of Clonsilla and James Lynam of Porterstown. The club only played at juvenile level with a single team winning a minor league in 1963. Club past president Ellis Poynton was a member of that team. They disbanded again shortly after with most of the team joining St. Brigids and others joining a club called Maurice O'Neills who played their games in the Phoenix Park Erin Go Bragh played their games in the colours of green and red at this time.
