• We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

    Sorry doc can’t agree with that.Seen plenty of players down the stadium and on tv doing it and I cannot stand it.I cannot understand when it is so obvious that they are not called to account to explain their actions(which they can’t do) and hit them with eg a 6 match ban,surely that would put a...

    Stop expecting perfection from us - top referee

    Like I said earlier players cheat which Smurf didn’t comment on.I don’t think you can level that at refs

    Stop expecting perfection from us - top referee

    Blind defence? I think I am more of an authority to comment about referees than someone that has done the odd game.And using the term “cowardice” yea right.We make honest decisions,so you will always get one team disagreeing with your decisions,notwithstanding the assessor that might be...

    Stop expecting perfection from us - top referee

    Not at all I’ve heard it.Was a ref for about 40yrs here and in Oz.Heard a fan in the West Stand at the vetch say the cancer comment to a colleague of mine.Before I got to him an old lady got stuck into him.You obviously seem to think it’s ok.Thats why people like you are the cause of a dearth of...

    So you would be ok if someone hurled abuse at you.Saying things about your wife and “I hope you get cancer”

    Stop expecting perfection from us - top referee

    That is what Anthony Taylor was talking about.You didn’t answer the 1st part.I don’t think reffing the odd game would give you a clear indication of what it’s like.

    Stop expecting perfection from us - top referee

    So you think that the disgraceful abuse you hear aimed at officials at our home games and elsewhere is ok? You see it at grass roots games as well.Shortage of refs the world over because of the crap they put up with.The refs are doing it because they love the game and so make honest mistakes,but...
