Stirling secured local bragging rights and deepened East Stirling's Scottish League Two relegation fears with a 3-0 triumph at Forthbank Stadium.
Moses Olanrewaju gave East Stirling keeper Darren Dolan no chance as he found the top-right corner from close range in the 17th minute to open the scoring.
Darren Smith then put the result beyond doubt after 64 minutes with a neat finish before Philip Johnston completed the scoring late on.
East Stirling are now 10 points adrift at the bottom of the table after a fifth successive defeat while Stirling remain sixth, seven points adrift of a play-off place.
