Career

Swailes moved to MK Dons from Macclesfield Town F.C. for an undisclosed fee of around £50,000 at the beginning of the 2007/08 season to join up with former Macclesfield manager, Paul Ince. He enjoyed an exceptional year as the Dons won promotion from League Two and the Football League Trophy, and was voted in the League Two Team of the Year at the end of the season.

On 18 January 2010 MK Dons announced that Swailes had been released and was to join Stockport County for the remaining six months of the season alongside fellow released player Ritchie Partridge. [1] All four MK Dons players who had joined on 18 January, plus David Perkins who had joined from Colchester United on loan started the match on 19 January against Swindon Town. [2]

At the end of the season, he signed a new deal with the club and was made club captain for the 2010/11 season. [3] After a run of 34 matches for the club, he was injured in a game against Lincoln City on 23 October 2010 [4] and faced the rest of the season out with injury. [5]

In May 2011 he was informed that he would not be offered a contract by the club for the 2011/12 season. [6]
