• 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

Seemed very down to earth and of course spoke how a football game can grab you

He occasionally writes on football, mostly Wales, for The Guardian. He’s a very talented fella and a huge Swans and Wales fan.
 
Elis is brilliant.

If you haven't heard it, seek out his Swansea special on the "Quickly Kevin" podcast. Proper old school Vetch memories. Well worth a listen.
 
Still good mates with him, we’re about 10 mins away from each other in south London. Did Bristol City away with him couple weeks ago and had the pleasure of attending his sons first Swans match away to Charlton (not sure his boy is that keen on going again any time soon 😂)
 
A clip came up on my Facebook - had no idea who he was but he could have been me. Grew up in West Wales - first proper club to the East the Swans. Rugby loving father. The Vetch was my temple of sin before returning to a County that wouldn’t allow a pub (or local swimming pool for that matter) open the next day for religious reasons.

He's done some acting, but mostly a stand-up comedian and radio/podcast host.

He was in a BBC sitcom called Josh (Widdicombe) but I think he was pretty much playing a version of himself.

Charlie Sheen (two and a half men) Larry David(curb your enthusiasm) are others that have basically played themselves in comedy series.
