Johnstone F.C. were a Scottish football club based at Newfield Park in Johnstone. [D. Pickering, "The Cassell Soccer Companion", London: Cassell, 1995, p. 169] The club were former members of the Scottish Football League.

The club was formed in 1878 and, after spending time in minor leagues, joined the Scottish Football Alliance in 1894 after most of its membership had moved to the Scottish Football League Second Division. During this time the club demonstrated its potential in the Scottish Cup by beating Greenock Abstainers F.C. 20-0 in a first round tie on September 5th 1891. [J. Rollin, "The Guinness Football Factbook", Enfield: Guinness Publishing, 1993, p. 126] In subsequent seasons they would play in the North Ayrshire League and, from 1898-1905, the Scottish Football Combination. They then joined the Scottish Football Union and from this league, one of the strongest leagues outside the Scottish League at the time, they were admitted to the Scottish Football League Second Division when it was expanded for the 1912-13 season. When this competition was suspended in 1915 due to the First World War they continued in the Western League and returned to the Second Division when it was reinstated in 1921. They were relegated to the new Third Division in 1925 and when this was abandoned the following season they returned to the Football Alliance. They remained in this league until 1927 when they were wound up.
