• 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

My friend Whispering Bob Harris played Money by Pink Floyd.
When it started I thought to myself “ooh it’ll be interesting to see how they get around this.”
Incredibly they played the whole song including the word ‘bullshit’ and on the BBC too.
I was shocked I tell thee. 😮
 
Hard work to replace JW on that Sunday afternoon slot , big boots to fill .

Gave Whispering Bob a few listens from the outset but slowly drifted away from his broadcasts on R2 .

Thought he was going down the Country and Western genre on my first few impressions on hearing .

Maybe he has changed his target audience or should , not tuned in the last few weeks though .

Is Bob your mate, Darran? You’ve told us about a few famous folk, not sure about Bob.
