• 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
    Owner, jackarmy.net

    Waffle, waffle (um, if anyone is too young to understand that word, it means saying something without being able to back it up). For the record, Wayne is saying that Andy Burnham is a new version of Boris Johnson, as if there could be another. To be fair, Johnson became mayor of London, despite...

    In what way is Andy Burnham a version of Boris Johnson, because I've never heard that before?

    Southampton

    Nope. The regulation only covers training sessions in the 72 hours before the match. Watching actual games is fine.

    Southampton

    But it's more than that, it's a breach of Regulation 127 which states: "no club shall directly or indirectly observe (or attempt to observe) another club's training session in the period of 72 hours prior to any match". It doesn't really matter if they got anything useful out of it, in the...

    Way back in 1964 Harold Wilson was elected the first Labour Prime Minister in 15 years (sound familiar?) and with a majority of just 4. It got so bad that they were taking Labour MPs in ambulances to vote in Parliament because the Tories refused to agree to postal votes. He used that 4 seat...

    I'm confused. Didn't Darren say that Jackfath was himself in disguise or did I misunderstand that?

    Bristol City new manager .

    Any competent manager will get them at least into the Play-offs next season. They have been under achievers for so long

    It's worth going to Asda, just to talk to someone face to face rather than using the internet. If you don't like their prices you can just wander off and do your shopping instead.

    Don't rule out Asda superstores that have opticians. I was pleasantly surprised how much cheaper they were compared with my regular optician.

    The Official Match Thread | Swansea City 3 Charlton Athletic 1 | Att: 19,245 | Saturday 2nd May 2026 | The EFL Championship | The Swansea.com Stadium

    Jeez, sit_down_jack can't you take a compliment? 😁 They were impressed. Maybe you'll like this comment better: "I quite enjoyed watching Swansea play. In all honesty, I would love my side to play even a fraction of how they play instead of what we have had to endure this season". If other...

    The Official Match Thread | Swansea City 3 Charlton Athletic 1 | Att: 19,245 | Saturday 2nd May 2026 | The EFL Championship | The Swansea.com Stadium

    Here's a comment from a Charlton fans forum: "Swansea finish in 11th, only 8 places above us. But the way they play football means there is an actual chasm between the 2 teams. This team needs some serious reinforcements to get anywhere near the level of Swansea."

    It's usually disappointing when you meet your heroes face to face.

    I was near Charlton last Saturday so went to see them at home against Hull. They're a decent side but too limited in front of goal to be much threat. Their fans are a friendly bunch.

    But I thought that you had met a lot of these twats face to face Darren? (And anywhere in London will be fine.)

    Thank you Phil. By the way, if you click on anyone's name you'll see how many posts they've made, and Darren currently has made 19,413 of them. Any bets that he'll reach 20,000 before final closure?

    Peckham has now become gentrified and you'll even find a Welsh cafe there called Bara that sells what they call a "Swansea Breakfast" at weekends https://www.baracafe.com/ Which isn't exactly my typical breakfast.

    Also do note that the Overground trains are still running, and that includes the Elizabeth Line, so anyone in east London should consider taking it to Paddington or Ealing Broadway (which might be quicker) and starting from there. For what it's worth my own recommendation for visiting Jacks...
