Newport County were promoted to the Conference Premier for the 2010–11 season, the level they had played at prior to bankruptcy in 1989.
Dean Holdsworth left Newport County to become team manager of League Two club Aldershot Town on 12 January 2011 with Newport County in fifth place in the Conference Premier table.
Tottenham Hotspur reserve-team coach Anthony Hudson was announced as the new manager on 1 April 2011.
The team finished their first season back in the Conference Premier league in ninth place.

After a poor start to the 2011–12 season with the team last-but-one in the table after picking up just a single win out of the first 12 games, Hudson was sacked on 28 September 2011.
He was replaced by Justin Edinburgh with the task of saving County from relegation.
Under Edinburgh County finished in 19th place and so maintained their Conference Premier status.
They also reached the 2012 FA Trophy Final and their first Wembley Stadium appearance coincided with the 100th anniversary of the club.
County lost the final 2–0 to York City who went on to secure promotion to the Football League a week later in a Wembley play-off match.

In May 2012, Newport County announced that they had agreed a deal to move to the city's rugby stadium, Rodney Parade.
In August 2012 EuroMillions lottery winner Les Scadding succeeded Chris Blight as club chairman.
In February 2013 a further 10-year lease to play at Rodney Parade was signed.

The centenary 2012–13 season saw Newport County finish third in the Conference Premier league, reaching the play-offs for the first time.
A 2–0 aggregate win over Grimsby Town in the two-legged play-off semi-final saw Newport County reach the 2013 Conference Premier play-off Final at Wembley Stadium.
The final versus Wrexham was the first Wembley final to feature two Welsh teams, and Newport County won 2–0 to return to the Football League after a 25-year absence with promotion to League Two.

County were awarded Freedom of the City of Newport on 17 August 2013 in recognition of this achievement.
