• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

Luke Williams on Leeds United | Reaction

Sorry to say it but distinct echoes of Russell Martin’s Bullshit Bingo in that clip. Hopefully this was a short extract from a longer interview in which he accepted full responsibility for failing to
- get his game plan right or
- ensure his players knew what their jobs were tonight or
- motivate them to give 100% or
- communicate his dissatisfaction to his captain when he saw that things were not going to plan
Or all of the above.
We’ve had one manager in recent seasons who never accepted responsibility when his teams failed. Let’s hope Williams has more class

And there it is.

Was wondering how long it would take you to taint him by association.

8 football matches, that's how long it took.

Priceless.
 
Funny how you didn’t respond when I posted that
- he seems smart and decent
- I have found much of the football we played under him to be enjoyable (as I did with Duff’s and Sheehan’s - but last night’s capitulation was appalling)
- I hope he’s the manager we’ve been wishing for since Potter left

So I’ll just pop those back into the record in anticipation of the next time you accuse me of making my mind up about Williams solely because he once worked with your poster boy.
 
Not sure you can teach intensity and pace.. RM was about little triangles. Duff wanted more physicality and intensity, Sheehan talked about playing on the front foot now LW wants more intensity. Maybe someone should share an internal memo and suggest we don't have the quality and type of players for this league especially has the quality has improved in the Championship. The spine of the side is weak. In fact is the root of our issues.
