James Stewart

Club career

Early career Born in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, he started his career with Todds Nook, and then Gateshead N.E.R., two local non-league sides where he first acquired his nickname, "Tadger", by which he was affectionately known throughout his career. Rangers finished second in the 1913–14 Scottish Division One table behind Celtic and were eliminated in an early round of the Scottish Cup by Hibernian.

Later career In May 1914 he returned to his native north-east, and non-League football, with North Shields Athletic where he became team manager. He was then living in Gateshead, and working as a commercial traveller.

International career Stewart made his first appearance for England against Wales on 18 March 1907, scoring England's goal in a 1–1 draw. His next England appearance, against Scotland on 6 April also ended with the same result. He made his third, and final, England appearance against Scotland on 1 April 1911 and again scored in a 1–1 draw. All three of his international appearances thus ended 1–1.
