The mid-1990s increased the club - now heavily in debt - within three seasons down three times. The sponsors got out and the bankruptcy was averted only by means of the sale of the sports facility. By joining forces, and the support of foreign players in the game operating in the district league was maintained. Since then Plattling played long in the Bavarian district league until after 2002 succeeded only in 2011, the second resurgence in the Bezirksoberliga Lower Bavaria. In the season 2011/12 SpVgg Plattling tried and failed to march through - so the club for 17 years, played for the first time in the national league Bavaria, but is relegated again after just one season.
