He moved south to join Wolves in 1944[3] and signed as a professional the following year. After proving himself in the reserve ranks, he made his debut on 17 December 1949 in a 1–1 draw with Fulham.[4] He came to the fore during the 1950–51 season, replacing Jesse Pye in the attack, and finished as top goalscorer with 22 goals.[5] Injuries waylaid him the following year, but in the next campaign, forming what was described as "a potent dual spearhead" with Dennis Wilshaw,[6] he was once again the club's leading scorer with 21 goals.[7] His tally of 24 in the 1953–54 season was a career best and helped Wolves capture their first ever league championship. It was Swinbourne himself who scored twice in the final game, a 2–0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur that confirmed the title.[8] The following season brought another strong return, including two goals in Wolves' famous floodlit victory over Honved of Hungary.[9][10] In 1955 he scored for England B in a 1–1 draw against their German counterparts: {{quote|Swinbourne too, in spite of limited support, showed that he is a dashing centre-forward who knows where the goal lies. He scored his side's goal and but for three really great diving saves by Kubsch would have snatched the victory himself.[11]}} His career was halted when he damaged his knee while hurdling over a posse of cameramen on the pitchside at Luton Town's Kenilworth Road ground in November 1955.[12][13] After trying to return just weeks later,[14] he was forced to undergo surgery on the injury. He was never able to resume his playing career and was forced to announce his retirement in May 1957.[12] Later lifeIn later life, Swinbourne lived in Kinver before moving to a nursing home in Kidderminster.[15] He died on 27 December 2015, aged 86, following a long battle with vascular dementia.[16] He was survived by his wife, Betty, and daughters Jayne and Helen.[15] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.neilbrown.newcastlefans.com/player2/royswinbourne.html |title=Roy Swinbourne |work=UK A–Z Transfers |publisher=Neil Brown |accessdate=27 November 2009}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.rsssf.com/tablese/eng-b-intres-det.html |title=England – International Results B-Team – Details |publisher=RSSSF |date=21 March 2004 |first=Barrie |last=Courtney |accessdate=27 November 2009}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.wolves-stats.co.uk/A-Z.html |title=Players.
