The club was formed after a few villagers met in the Golden Lion Public House. The golden lion on the club crest is in recognition of this. They were admitted into the Clwyd League Division 4 gaining promotion at the first attempt. Llandyrnog remained in Division 2/3 until the end of 1978/79 when they were promoted as runners up. The club spent over a decade in Division 1 until 1990/91 when they gained promotion to the Premier Division. Llandyrnog were crowned champions at their first attempt and promoted to the Sealink Welsh Alliance. After a lengthy spell in this league Llandyrnog were relegated back to the Clwyd League Premier Division where they stayed until 2002/03 until manager John James was appointed and the club gained promotion back to the Welsh Alliance.[1] Only one season was spent in this league as the Club gained back to back promotions into the Cymru Alliance for the first time in its history.

They stayed in the Cymru Alliance until the end of the 2008–09 season where they finished bottom of the table 20 points from safety.
