Career


Stark joined Rangers from Junior side Glasgow Perthshire in May 1900. He had seven successful years at Ibrox,[2] winning the Scottish Football League twice (1900–01 and 1901–02) plus a Scottish Cup (1902–03) and two Glasgow Cups (1900–01, 1901–02), and was captain when they won the Glasgow International Exhibition Cup in 1901.

He moved to Chelsea in 1907,[3] returning to Rangers a year later, but with no further major honours won in his two-season second spell there.[2] He finished his career as a first-team regular at Morton, winning his last honour, the War Fund Shield, in one of his final appearances in 1915.[4]

Stark also won two Scotland caps in 1909 and was captain of the side for both matches.[5] He was selected twice by the Scottish League XI.[6]
