• 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

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

He is favourite for the job.
That's not a good match is it!? Can't see the fans taking to his style.
 
It is an odd match when you think about the contrast in perceived styles.

The fans did get a little frustrated under Potter and his possession based style of play.

They will certainly lose faith with Coopers bland "based on the other team" approach.

For me it depends on results. They had a pretty poor end to the season. If he gets off to a winning start it can make all the difference.

I quite enjoyed watching Forest when he took them to the premier league. He isn't as bad as half the people make him out to be when it comes to the way his teams play.
 
Forest didn’t play the same as us under him, until the play offs. No reason to assume Brighton would play the same as Forest or us under him. Managers do develop.

Was thinking last night that our last 4 managers in the Championship went on to manage in the PL. in fact 5 of our last 6 managers in the Championship did. Sousa the only exception. It must be pretty unique?
 
Decent manager for us was Coops, he played the game with the players he had, he didn't try and make a silk purse out of a pigs ear.
 
I'll forever hold him responsible for losing at Wembley. Fckn bottle job.
 
5 of the 11 in the Brentford play off final played this season.
Personally, I didn’t enjoy watching the Cooper era but Guehi and Ayew aside, he got us there with the roughly the same quality we have now.
Saying that, top level centre halves and strikers do tend to make a difference over the course of a season.
 
His Forest side played tidy enough football. Comparing how he set us up to how he did with Forest is very silly.
