• 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 would've said Darling but he's clearly Off in the summer.

Cabango or Allen if he's now going to play
 
After his performance on Saturday I wouldn’t put Cabango in charge of a colouring book.

It’ll probably be bloody Fulton or Cullen.

A bit harsh on Cabango as he had 2 full.backs going AWOL and playing alongside a partner who hadn't even trained with the team.
 
It will be Cabango. He has been sighted for captain role for some time. Plus he has committed to us. What makes me sick is, Grimes was reported to be part of the group who convinced Ben to stay with us at a meeting. But then he himself wants gone. Team clearly have lost faith in the captain and manager.
 
one thing is, if Grimes doesn't FO then surely he can no longer be captain which is a win win
 
I asked this question the other day and there seemed a lot of hesitation in the answers.

I would also agree that it should be Cabango.
 
And herein lies the problem. There’s no leaders! You look at previous sides and each one (Rodger’s/Laudrup/ Roberto) had three or four leaders. This one is full of pussies
 
The stark reality is, if Grimes goes you may as well draw straws, or do rock/paper/scissors to decide the next skipper.

We don't have one proper leader in this squad. Not one. Not even a hint of one.

I would say that there are two. One is leaving at the end of the season because he can and the other is probably leaving because he is retiring.
But Grimes is not a proper leader anyway

You mean Harry Darling? I see you've fallen for his "square up to a Cardiff player on derby day twice a season" schtick then.

As for Joe, never been a leader. Great player back in the day but a follower, not a leader.
 
Er, nope can’t think of an obvious choice. Might as well try Cabango, but I’m not sure it’s his thing. Grimes will still be captain if he doesn’t leave. The players will be fine with that, it’s only fans who get their knickers in a twist (see also Williams never going to WBA gossip).

Travis at Blackburn was surplus to requirements last season - I’d go and get him and make him captain. But he’s been playing this year, so no chance.

Agree. The players have just cracked on with it since the WBA gossip with no apparent ill effects.
