Posted by Mr Wolf on November 27, 2004, 9:20 pm, in reply to "Re: Roy Swinbourne - 50's" Sorry for the delay, this is the old part of "the Wolves site" so I don't drop by here that often. Best bet would be for you to contact Wolves directly (probably best to write to the Secretary at WWFC and ask them to put you in touch with the Wolves Veterans/old players club...I know there is one. Hope this helps !! Best of luck...let us know how you get on (I'll drop by here every few days from now on). ! --Previous Message--
No worries matey !!!
: : Thanks Mr Wolf.
: My playing career has just tragicly cut short
: by nasty knee injury. I think that the Sutton
: Sunday Divison 5 will be able to go on
: without me though . .
: Any more info you can furnish me with will be
: much appreciated (how do I get in touch with
: the ex wolves players thing?)

: you

: My Dad was a Wolves supporter, born in
: Hednesford he was a mate of Tommy Galley
: (older ex wolves player)and used to watch the
: Wolves from the 30's up until his death in
: the late 80's..
: He used to talk about Roy Swinboure a lot
: (along with Messrs Mullen, Hancocks, Clamp,
: Slater, Wright etc). My Dad went to the
: Honved & Spartak games in the '50s
: (European Football at Molineux...remember
: that !!!!) He always referred to RS as
: "one of the finest forward's he'd ever
: seen"..."a natural goalscorer"
: and insisted that he would have gone on to
: even greater things if his playing career had
: not been cut short by injury (think he
: injured his knee jumping over a photographer
: behind the goal at Molineux and quit in
: something like 1957).
: Pretty sure Roy Swinbourne is still alive -
: if you contact the club they should be able
: to put you in touch with the 'Old Wolves'
: network.
