The new club, Hyde United, joined the Manchester League and by 1920 had won it five times and the Gilcryst Cup twice. They moved into the Cheshire County League in 1930 and won the League Cup four years later. The decade after World War Two proved to be the Golden years for the club, the Cheshire Senior Cup win in 1946 being the first of many trophies to arrive at Ewen Fields during the next ten years. In 1953 Hyde United won the League Cup and this was followed by a league and cup double a season later. Season 1955-56 saw Hyde retain the championship and finished runners up in the following three seasons. The FA Cup first round was reached in 1954 losing to the then Football League side Workington 5-1 away.
                                                                                                
The sixties saw Hyde make steady progress and in 1968 became founder members of the Northern Premier League. However after just two seasons they resigned and rejoined the Cheshire League where they remained for the rest of the decade. The League Cup was won in 1973 and in 1981 finished runners-up in the League. A year later the title was won for a third time, being enough to allow the Tigers back into the Northern Premier League. The first year back saw the club score 91 goals and a year later saw the club reach the League Cup final to loose on penalties to South Liverpool. A quick return to Maine Road saw the club win the League Cup in 1985-86 beating Gateshead 1-0.The following summer the club took the step of installing an artificial surface at their Ewen Fields ground and during that season won the Lancashire Floodlight Trophy.  In 1987-88 the club finished runners-up in the League and retained the Lancashire Floodlight Trophy. 

In 1987-88 the club finished runners-up in the League and retained the Lancashire Floodlight Trophy. In the following season a tremendous campaign saw Hyde again finish in the runners-up spot and reach the semi-final of the FA Trophy as well as losing the Clubcall final on penalties to Barnet. Their performance during that season earned the award of North West Team of the Season. The good fortune continued in 1989-90, fourth in the League, League Cup winners, defeating Gateshead 1-0, winning the Cheshire Senior Cup against Macclesfield and for the 
second year running losing in the final of the Clubcall Cup.  Manager Peter  O'Brien left the club the following season and players Graham Bell and Terry Megram each had a spell in charge of team affairs, but without any success.

Eventually Cliff Roberts took over in 1991 and began the hard work of rebuilding the team. However he could not finish the job he undertook due to the club's financial problems and he voluntarily terminated his contract to help the club through this difficult period. New manager Ged Coyne took over in October 1992 on a much reduced budget, and in 1993 Peter O'Brien returned for his second spell as manager. He took the club to ninth in the League, losing finalists in the League Cup and winners of the Manchester Premier Cup for the first time.

O'Brien re-signed at the end of the season for another post and in June 1994 Mike McKenzie, a successful and  much sought after manager, was appointed on a long contract. McKenzie's first season in charge  promised much for the future as Hyde reached the first round of the F.A. Cup and the semi-final  of the F.A. Trophy as well as retaining the Manchester Premier Cup. The 1995/96 season saw the end of an era as the Ewen Fields Club returned to the more traditional grass surface which played  host to another F.A. Trophy semi-final appearance.

The Season 1998/99 saw the silverware return to Ewen Fields as the Tigers won the Manchester  Premier Cup for the 4th time and 1999/2000 saw the Tigers claim runners up spot  in the league and win the Unifilla Cup beating Emley in the final.  Much was expected the following season, but after a promising start only a mid -table position was achieved.  The 2001/02 campaign started disastrously with only one point out of thirty.  at the end of September 2001, Mike McKenzie left the club by mutual agreement and was replaced by former player Dave Nolan.  Fortunes did improve slightly on the field, but the Tigers only escaped relegation by other teams not achieving the required ground grading.  Coupled with early Cup exits, the season was definitely one to forget.  

The following season the Tigers were relegated despite appointing Steve Waywell as manager at Christmas. A new team was assembled and the Tigers completed the transformation with the First Division Championship and the Chairman's cup in his first full season. Last season Steve Waywell continued his success with the Unibond Premier Division Championship and the Manchester Premier Cup. The Tigers hope to be amongst the front-runners in the Conference North this season. 

In 2003, the Tigers were relegated, despite appointing Steve Waywell as Manager in the New Year. A new team was assembled and the Tigers completed the transformation with the First Division championship and the Chairman's cup in 2004. The following season, Waywell continued his success with the Unibond Premier Division Championship and the Manchester Premier Cup.  In their first season in the Conference North the Tigers made a sluggish start, but put a fine run together mid-season and ultimately finished a credible 11th. Coupled with the retention of the Manchester Premier Cup after a thrilling last minute victory over Droylsden and a victory over Matlock Town in the Peter Swales Memorial Trophy.

Last season the Tigers again made a slow start but improved dramatically to just miss out on a Play -Off place by three points.  Waywell maintained his record of silverware at Ewen Fields by winning the Ray Stanley Memorial Sheild.  The Club also started a Reserve team  in the Lancashire League and likely to start a Football Academy in the next year as the club expands on and off the field.

With a settled team hopefully staying injury free, Hyde expect to be amongst the front-runners again in the Conference North this season.
