• 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

Trouble with shopping in Swansea is the council charge a fortune for their rent, I knew a Disney employee when it was open in the Quadrant down here before they shut they told me it was because the rent being charged was even higher than in Cardiff, shambles.

It’d needs sorting. For a city of our size, with the huge catchment we have to the west and north, the shopping experience in Swansea is shite. It’s shite even for a small town. Carmarthen is better, and it’s 16 times smaller FFS.

I don’t think they know whether to stick or twist with what they want the city to be, so have gone for a bit of everything. It’s shite.
 
I've been asked a few times in the last day or so as to my opinion on this scheme, and I have to say all I can come up with is this. It'll either be the best thing ever or it'll be a massive flop. It's a £40 million quid gamble, but i guess sometimes you dont know unless you try. I've looked at the one in New Zealand and to be fair it looks great.
 
Been to the Skyline in Rotorua a few times and it’s a good day out and something you can visit more than once. It is also used BY MTB riders who use trails from the top of the mountain back down, however it is a far bigger mountain and with a lot more space around it and parking is virtually off the main road running north to south in NZ.

Rotorua is a big tourist town with thermal spas everywhere so has a lot of tourists and not many residents in comparison, completely unlike Swansea.
