• 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

I do like that podcast. Ian Wright and Roy Keane are so funny together.
 
He's spot on.
Takes lot less effort to bang it long and try to win the second ball, rather than 19 aimless passes to get the same place.
 
Damned if we do, damned if we don't. We were unhappy with Monkball and now we sound like we want to go back to it (overly simplistic from me I know)
A possession strategy is fine if you have any idea what the hell to do with it. Our possession is pointless garbage. Walking around passing in front of the opposition and then keeper most touches is anti-football. The last thing we need is to swap entirely to a plan A of Monk/Cooper junk. Banging it long is better than unopposed triangles between defenders, Grimes and Keeper in injury time 1-0 down though!
 
A fluid game plan would be good, adapting our style of play depending on the opposition. Are they a physical side? How are they setting up? Are the full backs slow on the turn? Are the center halves vulnerable at set pieces, etc.?

Of course, that would take extra detail on the training ground and forward planning.

Basically the point I was making.

You're right, Waynker.

Our unique Swanseway blueprint was established absolute yonks ago, and most brilliantly executed in our Resurrection, our promo to the Premier League and most importantly the way in which we maintained our Swanseaway against all odds, til it was tragically broken.

Then Russell'sMartin sullied it all, the slimeball.

There will be a 2nd Coming, and Matty will be at that vanguard. He and Joey have the backing of the Board, many £Ms invested, many more £Ms to come whilst cleverly cutting our cloth appropriately - watch this space.....

Exciting times, for us Swanswayists.

Bellers has written his manual called Football begins with F. Where have all the forwards gone. You know it's fixed when VAR wont show it, unless their line is crooked like the remainder of it. One game Allardyce etc
 
...unlike your house extension.🤣🤣🤣
Long done and dusted - onto the shed now. First fix electrics in place for my sparky mate to hook it up.

Roof and walls superfoiled up. Floor to be done Friday with foil and then jablite, ceiling also having jablite and board. Spring time will add the insulated plasterboard and bingo, home office, games room for the kids and storage space where things won't go mouldy
