Damion Delano Stewart (born 18 August 1980) is a Jamaican professional footballer who plays for Perlis FA in the Malaysia Premier League, as a defender.
Stewart played for Jamaica team Harbour View FC where he garnered the nickname "Stew Peas". While playing as defensive stalwart at Harbour View, his club won the Jamaica Premier League in 2000 and CFU Club Championship in 2004. In February 2005, he had a trial with Darlington, following which he was due to sign for the rest of the 2004–05, until his move was blocked by the Home Office.
He returned to England in the summer with Bradford City and signed a season long loan for the 2005–06 season. He made his Bradford debut as a half-time substitute in a 2–0 defeat to Southend United on 9 August 2005. His first start came on 12 November 2005 when he was substituted after just 27 minutes. He scored his first goal in a 1–0 victory over Bournemouth to help ease Bradford's relegation worries. In total, he played 23 league games during his loan spell as Bradford came 11th in League One.
Bradford manager Colin Todd had hoped to keep Stewart on, but his form earned him a six-figure transfer to Championship side Queens Park Rangers. After a shaky start to life in the Championship, Stewart hit form after the arrival of Danny Cullip from Nottingham Forest. He soon cemented his place in the Queens Park Rangers side and played more than 80 games in the 2006–07 and 2007–08 seasons. In the 2007–08 season, Stewart scored five goals, but was also sent off twice. He memorably scored the only goal as QPR knocked Aston Villa out of the 2008–09 League Cup with a 1–0 victory at Villa Park.
