• 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

    Your First Ever Game At The Vetch !?

    10th Feb 1990. Won 4-2 against Fulham, Tommy Hutchinson header after about 2 minutes, and a Paul Chalmers hat trick. My old man took me cos we couldn’t get tickets for the Liverpool cup game. Best thing that ever happened!

    Josh Key

    Ronald, it would be amazing to see him flourish, he has ability, good skills and is pretty decent in the air, but his decision making as an attacker at this level is woeful and it doesn’t appear that he’ll ever truly ‘get it’. Full credit to Key for his turnaround in form, well worth keeping as...

    2026/27 Squad

    It’s going to be an interesting summer and the recruitment team have their work cut out to find the right upgrades and especially fill a huge hole if Vip goes. It’s fun playing scout, looking around the second tiers of European football there are a few standout goalscorers. Serie B -...

    Rochdale v York

    Officials get a lot of stick and rightly so a lot of the time, but these guys deserve heaps of credit. To get that call right, at that moment especially is a big case for human officiating. Pure football at its best!

    Yep. I don’t come on here to argue with fellow jacks, I love talking about the swans. But it seems that 4.3% of posters like to jump on innocuous comments 😉

    Ok I’ll rephrase for those who have difficulty inferring obvious context. ‘The problem is though that most players in the league we play in are better than him’ No % symbols or numbers, just an opinion. And not even a controversial one.

    Fair point. But you’re getting stats and opinions mixed up. Which is also easy for some.

    Sell VP For 20M (No Less)

    I hope he doesn’t go, but if he does we need to look at how Coventry used the Gyokeres money. Renewing his contract was some pleasing diligence from the board.

    It’s not a stat. It’s a fact. And Bellamy will also be able to see it.

    Cullen is a better footballer than any of us on here, by an absolute mile. He himself probably doesn’t even know how good he is compared to the ‘man on the street’. The problem though is that 95% of the footballers in the league we play in are better than him.

    Completely, he’s in the deadwood pile. I like to think that Matos is just being savvy, big him up, give him some game time, hope he nabs a goal and thus keep his transfer value and interest up. I really don’t want to dig out the lad, he’s a fan on the pitch, but frequently he looks like he...

    Cullen is the glaring issue. I think Matos is aware and I have a sneaking suspicion that he may be moved on. For me the problem is highlighted in players like Widell. I rate him highly, when he starts he’s everywhere, getting chances (and missing them) and as soon as he goes off we fall apart...

    A good point in anyone’s book, and second half until the Norwich pen we looked more than good. As much as I think Matos has done a superb job there’s been one consistent flaw, a recurring pattern in every game. I think a lot of you have alluded to it, EVERYTIME we make a few substitutions we...

    There would be 10 pens per game if that became the standard. Some may argue that it was a pen as vigs has ‘taken him out’ but getting clattered by the keeper is to be expected.

    A huge heap of credit to the boys, been superb in the second half so far. Surely trying to keep Yalcouye around for another year is a sensible option.
