• 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

    Cardiff Council SUV surcharge

    Lots of challenges with safe hydrogen for road vehicles. Worked pretty well for Saturn V rockets and easily generated, but logistical challenges abound. Probably the easiest solution would be small local plants that are a direct source of fuel. Could see this for HGVs, but convenience of home...

    Cardiff Council SUV surcharge

    Ever seen 'The Hunger Games'? If you want dystopia then vote Reform.

    Wore Both Colours: Alan Curtis, Swansea Icon and Southampton Forward

    Valleys Phil. The Rhondda is two valleys that meet at Porth. Curt is from the Rhonnda Fawr where I grew up up from age 7,

    I miss this era, immensely.

    I don't think anyone would. Instrumental in turning a decent team under Jackett into something truly special. The League One winning team was great entertainment. For his faults Sousa gave Martinez's entertainers more of a spine which Brendan was able to take forward to the PL and taken even...

    They contain baby milk (formula) which they are trying to get to float ashore. Seems but hopeful but the intention is good.

    That's just a matter of time really. 20 years perhaps?

    Have you seen the 'Kneecap' film? It's hilarious.

    Glamorgan Cricket Club 2025 - Promotion???

    For context it's 18 points for a win with a maximum of 8 bonus points . We can't finish bottom and with games running out two draws is likely to seal second. The three below who could catch us would need to win both games and there's not great weather in the long range forecasts.

    Glamorgan Cricket Club 2025 - Promotion???

    241-7. Shake of the hands a draw. 27 points clear of Derbyshire. Two more games.

    Montague

    In fairness he got Martin's number pretty quickly. Had many clashes with him over politics etc. but often agreed with his assessment of sport.

    Charlie Kirk

    I have. That's not reflection on Kirk but the rabid nonsense from the far left and far right after any such event. His death is reprehensible and have made no comment on him. Rather than those who seek to divide.

    Charlie Kirk

    Genuinely awful. Would disagree with much of his and Turning Point's politics, but this is truly dreadful as are those who would celebrate this. Equally I am bemused how 'the usual' claim this the killer is a leftist/Democrat. It strikes me this is a professional hit or performed by someone...

    The Summer Transfer Window Thread

    I genuinely think Galbraith with the physicality of Franco and Stamenic could be the best midfield in the EFL. Inoussa is not afraid to attach and I think Widdell a good bench option.

    Dirty Filthy Humming

    I am pretty much left wing and have little issue with controlled immigration. I have three Afghan families living opposite as part of resettlement schemes and that's fine. I work in Africa and Asia and my world view is people are people. But if a certain group are demonstrably problematic...

    Dirty Filthy Humming

    The problem is there is so frequently impact, far more caused than asylum seekers who so readily cause the frothing at the mouth for so many. Whether that's rubbish, damage, anti-social behaviour or petty thievery they make life difficult. There's a lot around here (North Somerset) and far...

    Horrendous news as ECB says. Not someone I knew personally, but a sad day. RIP

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    Go to Norwich. There’s no comparison really. It’s booming whilst Swansea has not had that sort of investment. That said there’s far less distractions nearby.

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    Norwich is a much wealthier city than Swansea. Large Science Park as well as providing services for much of East Anglia.

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    As both you and Phil say the pricing for kids is an absolute no brainer. My daughter came for kids for a quid, face-painted and met Cyril and Cybil back in the Martinez and Sousa days. She came to the last two games with me. Twenty three and straight to Swansea from her overnight shift at BCH...

    The Swan Dive: why Swansea’s attendances have taken a plunge?

    That's a bit of a myth. Swansea Urban Area (including Neath and Port Talbot) is 300,000. Even adding in Carmarthenshire and parts of Powys it's really around 500,000. Yes, I know there are fans in the Glamorgan Valleys and Bridgend but it's not that big a population. Oxfordshire's population is...
