• 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

It’s had a glow up since a major government employer occupied that building.
 
Yes.Incredible how a kid with a multi millionare father managed to start a succesful business.
He’s undoubtedly had a big leg up, but you’ve got to give it to the boys they’ve been a phenomenal success. Also he could quite easily have taken the HQ and plonked it in a trendy part of the Uk, but opted to stay in Swansea and bring employment and focus to the area.
 
It’s like Groundhog Day with these Au Vodka threads…not surprised it took under an hour for someone to mention Martin Morgan’s dosh.

You can’t argue that they’ve done an incredible job with the brand and advertising, tapping into social media, etc. It’s a worldwide brand now in a saturated market…and one of the leading names in vodka (regardless of what people think the actual quality/taste is like). It’s a great story for the city.
 
Why can't they, Bonnie Tyler, Cath and Mr Douglas buy us out mun ?
If carlsberg did owners.

Absolutely Swervey.
Yes it is a success story regardless of who has bank rolled the company, yes it may have been easier than for most, but also a tremendous amount of hard work too I would imagine Arent we as a nation just too quick to knock folk who have the vision and foresight to get off their fat arses and actually do something. Not withstanding of course that they actually employ local people, bring money into the local economy, but no let's just look at the negatives. Let's not forget in these incredibly difficult times, when hospitality especially has taken a massive hit over recent times, it's a great effort and as you say, great for Swansea.

Good on the lad innit. I hope it goes from strength to strength.

Never understood why people can't be happy for other peoples and their success.
