• 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

    The January 2026 Transfer Window Thread - Now Closed!

    Cooper had the benefit of two seasons of Para payments and brought in the likes of Gyokeres, Kasey Palmer, Latibeaudiere, while Whittaker failed to be utilised not only by Cooper but also by Russell Martin. Martin brought some beauts to the club-Rhys Williams, Christie, Burns, Sorinola, Okoflex...

    Interesting Graham Potter Interview

    Clucus proved at Stoke that he wasn't a bad player and you can blame the dumb head coach we had at the time in selecting Clucus in almost every position apart from in goal.

    What are we really expecting from Matos....

    For some I could be classed as a moderate happy clapper, a mid-septuagenarian who has witnessed the ups and down of the football club since 1961 but for the life of me I am struggling to come to terms following criticism of our new head coach. For a club that is in the bottom percentile of cash...

    Jay Fulton

    Experience in a squad is a necessity if you want to bring through young professionals but that experience comes at a price. Jay will rarely be one of the first names on the team sheet but will be called upon when the fixtures are congested. As has been mentioned there is no doubt he has been...

    Adam Worth

    You have missed out Widell - getting better and better in every game, doesn't shy away from a tackle and not far off from being a regular starter.

    Inoussa

    There's going to come a time when Inoussa will realise that he only needs to beat his man once and deliver a cross rather than stop / turn back and try to beat him again, and when he does we will have a very useful / dangerous wide midfielder in our squad.

    Fans Forum

    I find it hard to believe that we are aiming for Cat 1 when over a period of time there has been no teamsheets, a broken PA system and last weekend v Wolves the kick off was suspended because there was no mandatory ambulance present.

    Inoussa

    Thought Inoussa had one of his better games today and if Idah had been more aware of getting in front of his opponent Inoussa's cross would have been converted for the equalising goal. Galbraith was outstanding yesterday giving Sorba very little room and if he had stayed in the f/back position...

    The Ospreys

    Can anybody tell me why the Ospreys can't apply to join the English rugby pyramid. If the Ospreys become the region to miss out why should the WRU try to block a move to England.

    Disgrace! Club and Players - We Are Going Down!!

    To be fair to Tony Mowbray he has had an excellent reputation in the game and after his illness when in charge of WBA would he be that interested in coming to a club like the Swans and put his health in danger once again. Stay well away Tony.

    Relegation? Should We Be Worried?

    If we continue playing as we have been doing we will be relegated. We have gone from a team that started the season well and we have been sliding down the table since September. Ronald's inability to beat his man and send the defence splitting passes into the danger zone has gone missing and...

    New manager assistants

    As a defensive central midfielder Fulton did his job last night in the first half and it enabled Galbraith to play further up the pitch. The capitulation in the second half wasn't down to one man it was more of a collection of players who were unable to keep control of the ball in the opponents...

    Ronald

    He's struggling to deliver from the right wing, he fails to get to the by-line, his crosses invariably hit the first opponent, think its time to try him at right full back, what have we got lose?

    Harlan Perry

    At least the Harlan Perry situation is being aired in forums and social media and no excuse can be given by the club that they weren't aware of the player's situation. Having said that its getting nearer to when the transfer window opens and all manner of rumours will be posted!

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    Take away the schoolboy errors in yesterday's match at Ashton Gate I thought we were well in the game, as we were at Preston, and when I look at the 4th position Bristol hold in the table, I think to myself. Really! All we need now is a head coach who can organise a defence and select eleven...

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    the last thing a club should do is listen to what agents say, a recipe for disaster and was Jenkins's downfall. We are lacking an out and out football man on the current staff who has no agenda apart from making decisions for Swansea City.

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    Would we have said the same if Chris Davies(Birmingham manager) had accepted the Swans offer 18 months back.

    Cardiff vs Arsenal U21

    Checked out the Arsenal U21 line-ups on, https://uk.soccerway.com/team/arsenal/ngXZTiDH/ Remy hasn't started any U21 fixtures and has only made an appearance in the Cardiff defeat after the Arsenal keeper Rojas had been sent off while in August / September U21 fixtures Remy has regularly been...

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    Co-incidentally I came across this podcast / interview on Training Ground Guru and Vitor Matos https://trainingground.guru/podcast/vitor-matos-elite-developer/ The following is just half of the text from the podcast. Starting in coaching Vitor Matos: I was a player at a really low level. Around...

    The ‘Vítor Matos’ Managerial Thread

    In March 2024 we had a Portuguese analyst working for the Swans - Oscar Botelho - who we were led to believe was involved with us signing Gonzalez Franco. Before Gorridge's time at the club but I believe Adam Worth was on the club's books at the time and one wonders if contact was made with...
