John Stewart (born 3 August 1985 in Bellshill, North Lanarkshire) is a Scottish professional footballer currently playing for Scottish Football League club St. Johnstone, on loan from Falkirk. Stewart, who began his career with Aberdeen, is perhaps most famous for the winning goal he scored for the Dons against Celtic at Celtic Park on October 27, 2004.[1]
Stewart, a striker, boasted an impressive goalscoring record in Aberdeen's reserve team; however, he found opportunities in the first team hard to come by.
On August 31, 2006 he joined Falkirk for an undisclosed, five-figure transfer fee.[2]
In July 2007, Stewart was banned from the club's pre-season trip to the Netherlands following a breach of discipline.[3] On 18 July 2007 he was loaned to St. Johnstone for six months.[4]
