Frank Taylor (30 April 1916 - 1970) was an English footballer who spent his playing career with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Career

Taylor was a full-back who started his playing career with Wolverhampton Wanderers in 1936. He made his senior debut on 13 March 1937 in a 1-0 win at fc|Chelsea.

He played in the same team as his older brother Jack a handful of times, but it was only after his sibling left the club in Summer 1938 that Frank became a first team regular. He missed just one game of the 1938/39 season that saw Wolves reach the FA Cup Final, where they lost to underdogs fc|Portsmouth at Wembley.

The suspension of league football in September 1939 due to the outbreak of World War II effectively ended Taylor's playing career. Although he turned out in some wartime fixtures for Wolves, he left the club and football behind in 1944.

He died in 1970.
