In August 2007 Desna changed its president and the new president became a local activist and businessman Oleksiy Savchenko who headed a public organization "For Chernihiv!".[12] In the 2007/08 season Desna took the 4th place in the Ukrainian First League, which at that time was the best result of the team in the Ukrainian championship.[6] In October 2008 the club's president Oleksiy Savchenko made a huge announcement stating that he paid around $5,000 to $15,000 to referees for the club to get the needed result.[12] The Football Federation of Ukraine (today Ukrainian Association of Football) was not able to ignore such announcement and Hryhoriy Surkis took it under a personal control and called on the General Prosecutor's Office to initiate an investigation.[12] As a result the FFU Control and Disciplinary Commission prohibited Savchenko and former Desna head coach Kucherenko perform any duties connected with football until the end of the investigation.[12] In addition, five Ukrainian referees were suspended of their duties during that time as well.[12] In November 2008 the club's president Oleksiy Savchenko announced that he sold 50% of the club's stock for ₴10 million and the club's co-owner became Ukrainian parliamentarian of Party of Regions Pavlo Klymets[13] who was the owner of "Olimp" company specializing in production of vodka.[14][15] Later in 2008 in interview Savchenko denied the fact that he ever stated of "greasing" referees for the club.[12] And he also denied the fact of selling the club stating that he transferred the club to the city authorities for free.[12]

During the winter break of the 2008/09, the Desna leadership changed again and the new president Korotkov invited "experimental" head coach Mykhailo Dunets who in the fall half headed Komunalnyk Luhansk that became insolvent.[16] Korotkov already worked with Dunets back in 1990s in Veres. Following the 2008/09 season, Desna faced serious financial crisis and the club's players refused to play due to unpaid wages.[12] In the middle of July 2009 Dunets was forced to take a leave and he tried to fight requesting to be officially relinquished of duties.[17] His protest was ignored and few days later Oleksandr Ryabokon became the new head coach.[17] After the end of the 2009/10 season Desna was deprived of professional status due to the fact that it did not pass the certification,[18] but the new authority managed to revive the team and declare it in the Second League.[19]

However, on 1 June 2017, it was announced that Desna was denied in receiving license to play in the top division. The argument was that the club is not able to provide guarantees for an adequate financing of infrastructure.[25] In reality, the problem was not only in half-shady financial irregularities, but also shady ownership of the club.[26] The license was received by NK Veres Rivne, the third-placed team during the last season in the second-tier division.[27]
