• 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

Indeed. I was critical of the risk of appointing him at the time and I stand by that view.
However, I was not present at his interview and I'm delighted that the risk looks like a masterstroke. I was converted very quickly by what I saw.
I think we were all a little skeptical at the time. The majority of us are more than happy to admit when we're wrong, though.
 
“Starting line up was a shambles, can’t go into a home game without a recognised striker on the pitch.”

The best game we’ve ever played (IMO) was without a recognised striker on the pitch.

We didn’t create one notable chance in the first half

Leave it there will you, totally different class of player then, stick to your expertise on the Tizer League and lower League players.

I have 0 issue with fans having doubts or questioning appointments etc. Or those who stand by a manager on day 1. Know one really knows how it will turn out. It takes a bigger man to admit he is wrong or say sorry than those who do not and live and die by there original thoughts. Those are the fans I have issues with the ones who refuse to stand down, to just save face. The same goes for opinions, I was sceptical on our starting line up. And it's best we have played in ages. That's the point, we are all entitled to have opinions. I was told today on another site I am not intelligent enough to pass an opinion. Well if you have to state that then someone needs to look in the mirror. Enjoy the win all.

Wow, someone actually said that to you online? We've all got our thoughts on how and who should player when and where, all part of being part of the online community.

Says a lot more about the individual that it does you. I enjoy reading your posts on here 😉
 
Surely Stamenic must be nearing 5 yellows by now. If he’s on 4 then he has to play against Milwall and ‘unfortunately’ pick up another to miss the cup tie!

I believe it reset after 'match round 19' and now requires 10 yellow cards to trigger a ban.

I really appreciate that. I wont go into it, but it's a total turn off when people think that people with a certain hiaracy of football intelligence should only post. At end of day, I couldn't care less. Its about us all learning and enjoying and debating while being respectful. Appreciate that Smurph 🙏
