[edit] Club career

[edit] Harbour View

Damion Stewart played for Jamaican team Harbour View. In February 2005 he had a trial with Darlington, following which he was due to sign for the rest of the 2004–05,[1] until his move was blocked by the Home Office.[2] He returned to England in the summer with Bradford City and signed a season long loan for the 2005–06 season.[3] 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.[4] He scored his first goal in a 1–0 victory over Bournemouth to help ease Bradford's relegation worries.[5] In total he played 23 league games during his loan spell as Bradford came 11th in League One.

[edit] Queens Park Rangers

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.[6]

[edit] International career

He made his debut for the Reggae Boyz in 1999 against Ghana.
