King’s Park was a former Scottish League football club based at Forthbank Park Stirling, who dropped out of the League in 1939 after eighteen years.  In 1891 King's Park became founder members of the Scottish Alliance, one of several leagues set up after the Scottish League was formed in 1890. After only one season, the club joined the Midland League and then helped form the Central Combination in 1897. The competition was abandoned with fixtures incomplete in 1903-04 and King's Park spent two seasons playing friendlies and in cup competition before joining the Scottish Union in 1906 and then the Central League in 1909. In 1921 the Central League was incorporated into the Scottish League as the new Second Division. King's Park generally finished in the middle of the table, although they narrowly missed out on promotion in 1928 when they finished in third place, just one point behind promoted Third Lanark. Their ground was badly damaged during the Second World War by the only the only bomb dropped on Stirling. In the Spring of 1945, with the war drawing to a close, the club's future came up for discussion. Managing Director, Tom Fergusson decided to purchase land on the Annfield Estate and establish Stirling Albion FC as a new senior football club to replace King's Park. Despite angry protests that the liquidation laws were being manipulated to re-establish King's Park under a new name, free of debt, Stirling Albion was elected to replace the old club in the Scottish League in 1946.
