Kingstonian Football Club are an English, non-league football club that will play the 2005-06 season in the Isthmian League First Division after being relegated from the Isthmian League Premier Division.
The club plays at The Fans' Stadium, Kingsmeadow ground in Kingston upon Thames; it shares the ground with AFC Wimbledon. AFC Wimbledon is currently in the process of purchasing the ground from former Kingstonian owner Rajesh Khosla.
Kingstonian recently had a great period of success, winning the Isthmian League in 1998 and The FA Trophy in 1999 and 2000. In 2001 they got to a fourth round replay in The FA Cup, beating two professional clubs along the way. Financial problems have seen a downturn in the clubs fortunes in recent years but with new Chairman Jim Cochrane taking over the club in February, Kingstonian are poised to move back up the Leagues.
