• 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

Having seen how histrionic our own fans can get when some perfectly capable players are being "evaluated" the opinions of Celtic fans don't particularly interest me.

We're obviously not going to be paying anything like £7m guaranteed for him. Probably not even half that. A guaranteed £3m or so puts him in the same price bracket as Kone, and he's got evidence of performance at a much higher level than RK has shown.
 
£7M for Idah is hugely overpriced

Hope this doesn't happen
Whilst none of us supporter know the price in reality i think Dr Winstones description is along the right lines, with add on pushing price up.
but he is not here yet and if this one fall through where do we go with clock ticking?
 
Looks like we're on our 10th choice striker as the clock ticks down

At this rate we'll sign Pratleys second cousin..
 

This is strange considering Tom Coleman said it wasn’t advanced at all. Also sceptical on the 7m fee. Can’t see if being that much. Really not a fan of that price tag.

It's not going to be anything like £7 million so much upfront and rest paid over the length

You say you don't want him and then in another post criticise our search any particular reason you don't want him I'd much prefer him to Kone
 
Phuq me - this guy is still 23 and has a ceiling so high that someone paid 9 million for him as a 21 yr old.
Those suckers at the Irish FA are so stupid they selected-this young man not once or twice but 30 Times!!
Because some internet keyboard warriors are dissing him then for sure he is a shit show 😱
For fucks sake lets sign fhe guy watch him play and let him settle.
Before we turn up at his house with burning pitch forks lets see what he has to offer..
My guess is we will be pleasantly surprised!
I tend to agree with you
 
I do like the calibre of players we're bringing in now - most in the 21-25 age bracket with experience who can push on.

Also like the fact we've added height with stamenic and Idah to compliment Galbraith, yalcouye et al

Sheehan, over to you..
 
Govea going to girona? What the fucks happens there?
 
Always been massively keen on Govea, but heard a few people on here who watch the academy more often than I do say that he's not kicked on at all in the last 18 months; if we get a good fee, crack on
 
Yates, Lowe, Mykola, and Bianchinni were all multi million pound strikers. Vipotnik and Cullen are both internationals.
Seems like we’ve missed out on a lot of our targets. Hopefully if we can bring someone in they’ll buck the trend.
They were all multi million pound strikers because we paid way over the odds for all of them.

Where did I criticise our search?... I've no idea who all these potential targets, are all i was saying that we will end up with a player who is not top or middle of our list where Sheehan quoted he wanted a striker better than what we have. Is Idah that man?
