SWINTON WMC ended 20 years of hurt by sealing the Mexborough League title with a 2-1 win over nearest rivals Goldthorpe Comrades.

​

A point would have been enough to land the trophy for Swinton who started their quest nervously.

​

Comrades were much the better side in the early stages and took the lead on 20 minutes.

​

The setback only spurred Swinton on and they were soon level through Brady Roberts.

​

Swinton truly gelled after the break when they defended solidly and pushed on in search of the winner. Roberts drilled home a 25 yard free kick to seal the win and claim the title.

​

It proved to be an excellent week for Swinton who also won the George Jowett Memorial Trophy with a 3-0 win over local rivals Swinton Station 2007.

​

Station were the better side for long periods but Swinton took control after opening the scoring. Ricky License scored twice with Nicky Darker grabbing the third.
