Stewart Dean Talbot (born 14 June 1973) is an English former footballer who played as a midfielder. He made over 300 appearances in the Football League in an eleven years professional career.

Starting his career with non-league Moor Green, he was signed by Port Vale in 1994. After six years at Vale Park he moved on to Rotherham United, where he spent four years. He played over 100 league games for each club. He then played over fifty games for Brentford before leaving the Football League in 2005 to join Boston United. He spent four years at Boston before finishing his career at Kidsgrove Athletic.

Talbot played for non-league Moor Green, also having a brief time with Doncaster Rovers. He entered the Football League with Port Vale of the First Division in August 1994. At the age of 21, he entered professional football at a late stage and was one of numerous players who owed their careers to John Rudge. His debut came on 29 April 1995, in a 1–1 draw with Charlton Athletic at The Valley. He played in the 1996 Anglo-Italian Cup Final, as Vale lost 5–2 to Genoa. By 1996–97 the club had reached its peak, before a slow but steady decline. The club finished eighth in the second tier, Talbot played in 34 of these games, including two Potteries derby clashes. He was in even greater demand the next season, making 45 appearances, justifying his reputation as a hard working player. He also racked up thirteen yellow cards and six goals.
