• 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

That'll teach me not to read the reviews. Just returned from the cinema having watched the biggest pile of horseshit to ever be screened. Anyone think of taking their partners....don't!
And I avoided going down the stadium cos of lack of entertainment...Jesus wept.
 
I thought the first one was a decent film, albeit massively overrated, but it was also a massive rip off and I’m amazed Scorsese didn’t sue. Not seen the second one and probably won’t be rushing to now.

Just watched Deadpool and Wolverine and laughed all the way through it. Job done.
 
Just finished Peaky Blinders, quite enjoyed! What amazes me, and I'm not sure how based on actual history it is, but one thing that struck me is, that women were not allowed in pubs unaccompanied by a male in say 1918? Around my grandparents days.

It's a great show, and makes you think about history. There was one point in it, it seems ancient yet as I was watching it, I was thinking jesus christ that's a few years before my parents were born.. It was when Oswald Mosley came into it.

Edit: I should say the latter stages of Mosleys appearance in it

I walked into the bar of Briton Ferry Workingmens Club with my girlfriend in 1982 and committeemen came running from everywhere because females weren’t allowed in the bar.

Yeah I know mate it's crazy, but one thing I will say, some series are way better, when they have reached their conclusion, not that I intended to do it with peaky Blinders, but when you can binge watch to the end, it seems better?

One series I am right into at the moment is House of Dragons, now from what I have read next season is out 2026.. 2 bloody years!!, all the drama has faded by then.. :(

Got a few lined up to watch From, Slow Horses, Tulsa King, Cobra Kai, just waiting for them to reach the end of their current new seasons.

Btw From is brilliant.

Yes, I have witnessed that in workingmens clubs, 70's, early 80's, no women allowed, in male bar area but this seemed every pub, like women could not go into any pubs unless accompanied by a male.
