Most of what was lost had been won inside a single stretch. The title came in 1997, again in 1999, then back to back in 2002 and 2003, and in the middle of that run the club took the Kazakhstan Cup in 1998. An earlier championship, in 1993, sits slightly apart from the rest.

Before any of that, in the years when the club played Soviet football, its founding date, 1965, belongs to the same period.

The revival took a year to arrange. The club was reconstituted in 2023 under both of the names it answers to — Irtysh in Russian, Ertis in Kazakh — and returns to the Premier League for the 2026 season. It goes back to the same ground, which holds 11,828, and in the same white and blue that gave the White-and-Blues their name.
