• 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

    We're in a relegation battle - pros and cons of booing the players

    And what does galvanise a crowd is a crunching passionate tackle, winning a 40:60 ball. Only need a few of those to get a roar. Message please to the Manager and players. Especially Franco I'm afraid, looking at that continental rolling about the floor yesterday 😡

    We're in a relegation battle - pros and cons of booing the players

    But they're not much good of course...and we want to avoid relegation. So what's the point in us making it any worse

    Mmm, possibly is the best answer if there is going to be booing , and I'm not naive enough to think there won't be

    We're in a relegation battle - pros and cons of booing the players

    Hopefully one or two additions may come in the January transfer market. But let's not assume that - or that they will be any good. But before and after then, we are likely stuck with what we've got in terms of the Manager and the players. So is there any point in booing the players if we are...

    Vitor Matos on West Bromwich Albion | Reaction

    Is so true. The culture of pass to the nearest player, mostly sideways and back. Remember those old triangles where players were always looking for space to receive, then move forward positively etc etc.

    Vitor Matos on West Bromwich Albion | Reaction

    Is correct. In a different environment, he might well be the answer, time to develop a new culture etc. But from pre season onwards, the pattern on the pitch has not been good, signs were there of a middling squad, no penetration etc. Then loss of confidence, a recipe for a relegation...

    Relegation? Should We Be Worried?

    Yes, O'Brien did make a difference, wish we had him now tbh

    New manager assistants

    To quote the Major in Fawlty Towers. No !! I won't have that. There was that one game in 2016 ... Seriously though, he was decent once upon a time, 300 games not to be dismissed, compared to loads we've seen and gone after one season in recent years. But yes, his time has passed, thanks Jay...

    Relegation? Should We Be Worried?

    F**k me, why on earth did we appoint Vito with you about 😂😂

    Relegation? Should We Be Worried?

    1. Instincts totally from a football perspective. I've been a fan for 50 + years 2. SOME of our new signings are proper players. But sorry not almost ALL. 3. "massive latent talent" - Christ almighty, and those are your instincts 😂😂 But I really want Matos to bring out the best in everyone...

    Relegation? Should We Be Worried?

    Probably not. But maybe not far off. Trouble is we don't know if the players full potential is being achieved. And whether they can mesh into an effective team. Big input by a manager here. Culture as well. Sheehan was not the man. Time will tell with Matos. But I'm afraid my instincts...

    Agreed. But unfortunately no matter what he tries, I think that this squad is just not good enough, the summer volume (not quality) of players hyped us all up at the start. Reality is we're average at best, moving rapidly to below average ..and I fear a relegation battle no matter what the new...

    Vitor Matos Arrives in Swansea: A Club at the Crossroads

    Hey cmjack, what's Mrs cmjack verdict now she's heard him speak. I hold great store by her judgement 👍

    Vitor Matos Arrives in Swansea: A Club at the Crossroads

    F*****g love it. He's got a pleasant little face is about as good as it gets for our managers CV's, gotta to be the way forward compared to any other factors in the recent past. I'm buoyed up now by this left field approach, my compliments and thanks to Mrs cmjack 👏

    Martin. Yes or No?

    IT'S HAPPENING GUYS...EMBRACE IT !!

    Martin. Yes or No?

    I've thought about it. And maybe it's best if Martin returns. Better the devil you know and all that. He will now be a humbler person. Better for his experiences. I also predict no more fist pumps. No more stats overload. No more passing across the back etc. He will want to reinvent...

    Martin. Yes or No?

    Not sure why this thread keeps on going. No way on earth is Martin coming back. Let's end it now.

    I'm falling out of love with football....

    Well, that Wales performance tonight shows how football should be played. What a difference pace and directness can make !! Now stuff like that can bring the love back 😊

    I'm falling out of love with football....

    Exactly. It's built into them to pass safely and short and sideways and back to retain possession. Killing the game. Pace and dribbling and beating a man gets bums off seats. There's no fizz or wow.
