Reginald "Reg" Stewart (30 October 1925 – 6 March 2011) was an English footballer who played as a centre half in The Football League.
Born in Sheffield, Stewart played for Sheffield Wednesday and Colchester United in the Football League from 1946 until 1957, and with non-league clubs Hastings United and Clacton Town.[1] A member of the first ever Colchester United side to play in a Football League game, Reg was an uncompromising central defender who came south from Sheffield Wednesday.
A regular in the heart of the defence for seven years, he played some 268 times for the U's before leaving to sign for Clacton Town.[2]
