• 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

Colours Nailed and all that

The strength and conditioning coaches would have provided Matos with their data driven recommendation on whether Vipnotnik was physically capable of handling a full game or just a partial game, hence why he was on the bench.

Yes he is our top scorer, no he's not a machine.
He is a machine for sure.

I get what you are saying though.
 
It’s just not a very large data set of games to be making any claims about averages. It’s been a combination of a very tough run of away games and a spell of unlucky results. It’s just too early to draw conclusions about it yet
I think there is enough games to certainly open up the discussion. The last batch of games coming up away from home are going to be tough but we can't have the mindset with them being tough or us being unlucky.
We need to be looking at breaking the cycle.
 
Which raises other questions.
Maybe might have been worth keeping Wales here after all.
Lad can't get in the Huddersfield team. We have better options in the squad when it comes to managing the minutes of Vipotnik.

The last lot of away games bar Wrexham are certainly easier than the run of games we’ve had. If we’re still not getting results, then we could seriously be having this conversation. Away games are never going to go as well as at home but I do expect to see some more wins and draws for the last stretch.
 
This season we've earned more points away from home with Sheehan as manager than we have with Matos 👀

Sheehans away games were against teams that are mostly in the bottom half of the table. Matos’s games have been against side mostly inside the top 6. It’s not really a fair comparison.
 
Do we have the most negative and reactive fans in the league? Has to be right up there.

We aren’t pretending Liam Cullen isn’t a striker now are we?

132 appearances as CF vs 31 as an AM and our top goalscorer last season..

Let's hope the conversation has eased a lot down the line after the run of away games.
We can't ignore the situation to it though.

Portsmouth, Wrexham and Sheffield United next 3 away. Nothing is changing against those 3 sides.
 
We were performing as a top 4 team under Matos over a 15 game spell I'm not exactly sure what people want and why this discourse has happened over one poor performance against a team which will most probably finish in the top 2.
Agree ! And even against PNE, the poor first 45 mins got sorted at half time by him.
