Entering the 1960s, PSMS became a frightening specter for the clubs in Indonesia. They won Perserikatan title for the first time in the 1967 season after beating Persebaya Surabaya
in the final. They retained the title in the 1969-1971 season after beating Persebaya again in the final. And with Persija Jakarta

PSMS glories eras ended in the early 1990s. In the 1991-92 season, they became the runner-up when they lost to PSM Makassar

, PSMS achievement was up and down. In the Liga Indonesia 1994-95
and 1995-96
, they became the mid-table club. Even in the 1996-97 season, PSMS almost relegated to First Division. The situation improved when in 1997-98 season, they ranked 1st at the west division. But the competition was stopped due to the May 1998 riots which made the security condition in Indonesia was not conducive.

Upon returning to the Liga Indonesia 2004, PSMS performance was not very bad. They started the season poorly, PSMS finished the season by being in 7th position with 47 points, the result of 14 wins, 5 draws and 15 defeats.
Before entering the new season, they won the second edition of Bang Yos Gold Cup, a pre-season competition initiated by Sutiyoso
, the governor
of Jakarta
at that time. In the final, they beat Geylang United 5-1 at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium. Entering the 2005 season, Liga Indonesia format changed from the format of one region into two regions (west and east). PSMS located in the western region along with their rivals, Persija and Persib. They started the season dramatically, by defeating PSPS Pekanbaru
3-2 in Teladan Stadium. Erratic performance made the competition with Persib to qualify for the round of eight. With the very fierce competition, PSMS finally qualified to the round of eight after being in 4th position, 4-point difference with Persib in 5th position. In the round of eight, PSMS were in Group B along with Persipura Jayapura
, Persik Kediri
, and Arema. In the first game, they played a goalless draw against Arema. Their hope to qualify for the finals came when they won 2-1 against Persik, but their hope vanished when they lost 1-0 to Persipura. They only qualified for the third place playoff against PSIS Semarang

Like the previous season, PSMS competed in the third edition of Bang Yos Gold Cup before entering the new season. They managed to retain the title they have won the previous edition, after their 2-1 win against Persik in the final. In 2006 season, their performance declined slightly than last season, because they were just in 5th position, 3-point difference with Persekabpas Pasuruan
, which made them fail to qualify for the last 8. The competition of the fourth position in the western region between PSMS and Persekabpas was very dramatic. In the last game in the western region, PSMS lost against Persijap Jepara
0-1 at home, while Persekabpas won 3-2 against Sriwijaya FC. Persekabpas qualified for the last 8 as they were in 4th position in the western region.
PSMS tried to improve their performance in the 2007-08 season. With their successful to retain their title in the fourth edition of Bang Yos Gold Cup that made them the immortal owner of Bang Yos Gold Cup, they believed they could won their first title in Liga Indonesia since the era of Perserikatan ended. Their ambition was almost achieved after they were in 3rd position in the western region under Sriwijaya FC and Persija, who made them qualify for the last 8.

In the final, they had to admit defeat on Sriwijaya FC 3-1.
Because the Football Association of Indonesia
wanted to introduce the professionalism of Indonesian football competition by making Indonesia Super League as the highest competition, PSMS had to relocate to Gelora Bung Karno Stadium as their home since Teladan Stadium did not fulfill the criteria of professionalism which were created by the League Board of Indonesia. By the start of the 2008-09 season, PSMS were still haunted by internal polemics between the management team with the manager who raised the PSMS resignation news of Indonesian Super League 2008-09. Finally on 10 July 2008, the League Board of Indonesia decided to continue to include PSMS Medan to Indonesia Super League.
