In 1992, it won the 2. deild karla after beating Gnúpverjar in the playoffs. ÍFL had originally defeated UMFB during the group stage of the playoffs and Gnúpverjar in the finals. However, ÍFL had used an illegal player and as an result of an official complaint, UMFB was awarded a 2–0 victory which meant they finished with the best record in their group and faced Gnúpverjar in the finals rematch. It again played in the 1. deild for the 1992–1993 season but finished last and were relegated back to 2. deild.
