• 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

    Some questions after tonight's game ...

    Great win. Cant fault players for effort and endeavour I thought the midfield 3 of Widdel, Franco and especially Staminic played well. Staminic was a threat and was always driving forward. So much so, his teammates couldn’t keep up, then he had to stop, regress and either pass sideways or...

    FA Cup Third Round - Swansea City v West Bromwich Albion

    Yep. Their Keeper kelham O’hanlon had a blinder in goals that day. Very windy too if I remember.

    Cardiff v Chelsea.

    I’d like to think the Martinez league 1 side of 2007/08 would take this league 1 Cardiff side to the cleaners.

    Cardiff v Chelsea.

    Tbf Cardiff have more than matched a Chelsea side albeit a much changed one. I also like the keeper they have on loan. His distribution has been really good so far.

    FA Cup Third Round - Swansea City v West Bromwich Albion

    I remember the Rotherham game too. Played in pissing down rain. We were getting into some sort of groove under Yorath at the time. Like you say after the 4-0 drubbing in the replay it all went tits up for the season, then Frankie came in and saved the day!

    Hope we smash them. They’ve got themselves a superiority complex since Hollywood came along. Before that they were nobodies in Welsh football. Look at the archives from the 80s and 90s, they were averaging 2000 crowds even in league 1. I’ve heard a few say ‘it’s great for Welsh football’. On...

    27 Points Needed - 9 Wins

    That’s the frustrating thing. In the past you had half a dozen or so sides you’d know were nailed on for promotion/ play offs. Let’s be honest, who’d have thought that Coventry would be running away with the league? Playoff candidates yes. And Hull, Preston and Millwall all doing well. That...

    FA Cup Third Round - Swansea City v West Bromwich Albion

    I remember we drew them in 86/87 in the 3rd rd. Albion were a struggling division 2 side and we were riding high in the old 4th Sean McCarthy scored a last minute winner to give us a 3-2 win down the Vetch.

    Some Of Our Fans Today

    I was at Bristol last week. The no of young lads in the toilets at half time, who were openly discussing taking the white powder opened my eyes!

    And Celtic warned us, then laughed when we payed what £7M?

    We need proper football people in

    Players have to be accountable. End of. Where was the leadership again today on the pitch? Too many of them think they’re probably better than they are. We’re a physically weak side and as for fitness, I’d like to see what they do in fairwood. Matos likes playing a high press game. He’ll soon...

    Craig Bellamy

    I think he’ll have a decent career in club management. Seems to have mellowed as a person compared to when a was a player. For a Cardiff lad, he’s very complimentary towards Swansea. I for one wouldn’t be against him managing us down the future if the opportunity arose.

    Leo Walta

    We make these signings, then let them rot on the bench. Widdel being a prime example. Whenever I’ve seen him play, he’s given us energy and forward momentum. Ah that’s it, no wonder he’s on the bench then. He’s too far attack minded. Silly me.

    Santos

    Can’t understand the hate on this one. All of our centre half’s have been pretty shyte this season tbf, maybe Casey is the best of a bad bunch.
  16. T

    You can blame Williams, Sheehan and maybe later on Matos..

    But the shower of shyte taking to the pitch shouldn’t be devoid of any criticism. Call yourselves professionals? The great Liverpool, Utd and Arsenal teams of the past for examples had great leaders on the pitch. Who did we have yesterday? Absolutely no one. Maybe the signings in the summer and...

    Relegation? Should We Be Worried?

    How many times did we fail to beat the first man? It’s criminal that a professional can’t do that.

    Are the players giving everything?

    Always the manager who’s the fall guy, but the 11 today out there in Bristol were pitiful. It must be quite embarrassing for them to be classed as professional footballers

    Craig Bellamy

    Hypothetical question. How would our fanbase take to Bellamy if he came to manage us. I’m not saying it’s gonna happen, but what would the reaction be?

    Craig Bellamy

    Didn’t like him when he was a player, especially considering his Cardiff connections However I’m starting to warm to him now, especially on listening to his last few interviews. I think given time, he’ll end up being a very good manager at club level too.
