The following season, 1910–11, it joined British Club to make a single team called British-Popo with all the players switching over for the 1911–12 season.

League Crisis in 1909
Popo Park was created from a project of ex-players from Mexico Cricket Club, Penny and J.J MacFarlane. Mexico Cricket Club was admitted into the San Pedro Golf Club in 1904 then in 1906 to the México Country Club until dissolving from the Liga de Fútbol in 1908.

In 1908-09 the league was left with three teams, Reforma, British Club y Pachuca, after México Country Club left. The crisis occurred from the limited number of people in teams. Only those team with a large number of players were able to maintain themselves. This caused the 1908–09 season to only have eight games, two for Copa Tower and Clásico England - Scotland.

Formation of Popo Park
For the 1909–10 in the crisis of folding the league, Penny y J.J. MacFarlane formed a group of random players that had performed well in English teams. They were backed by commercial group Pop Park who adopted the team and making the team the first to have a sponsor. On Sunday October 24, 1909, Popo Park FC played its first games against British Club achieving a 1–1 draw.

Their name was changed to British-Popo for that season and in the following season 1912-13 they once again changed their name to Rovers Football Club.
