• 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

    I agree that we could have lost 5-0 if their finishing had been better. They are a former Premier League team with a squad to match. Describing our performance as “garbage” is a bit strong though.

    The acid did help too.

    I’ve seen the Swans slaughtered by superior teams on more occasions than I can count, seen Julian Alsop head a ball and then look around to see where it might have gone, been kettled by the police at Millwall, attacked by skinheads at Arsenal and bricked at Luton. Today I attended a good natured...

    Did he persist with the same old today, though? The starting line-up may have been predictable, but the way the wingers were so isolated and dependent on long passes suggested to me that Sheehan expected Southampton to counter-attack with pace and told his full backs to stay back in our half...

    We just played two relegated Premier League teams in a row. Their combined squad values are stratospheric compared to ours. We held Southampton to a draw and competed very well against Leicester, despite the final score. Talking about replacing Sheehan is ridiculous at best, at worst it smacks...

    I was there at St Mary’s in Feb 2015 when we set up with 11 men in front of our net, did nothing for 89 minutes and took three points with spawny goal. We didn’t rob anyone today, they dropped two points because of their carelessness.

    I enjoyed that game, on balance. Enough skill on both sides to be entertaining, although there was too much aerial ping-pong for my liking. Both defences did really well. Southampton played more like an away team, relying on counter-attacks to create goal scoring opportunities. Referee was...

    Also he might have put Galbraith on the bench with an eye to replacing Key if he has another poor game. Don’t think Key has done enough to justify dropping him from the starting XI quite yet (although I absolutely would not start him against Man City).

    Was he?!!! I didn't catch that (opted to turn the sound down for most of the game because I found the commentators annoying). Well he was their best player by some way.

    We are certainly fortunate that it was their right winger who was on fire last night.

    So what matches do your kids find not boring? I thought last night’s match was very entertaining - lots of action in both boxes, two very well taken goals, some thrilling saves, some periods of sublime passing and a real sense of jeopardy. Far from perfect by any means, but IMO a good deal more...

    Damn I love listening to Bowie. Anyone else see him on that tour?

    Have to agree. There's a decent player in there - just needs the right coaching to get it out of him

    OK, did you see Galbraith and Stamenic pass the ball between them like metronomes today? No? Then it’s not the same. Some similarities, granted, but not the same.
