• 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

    The "Things that are worth saying but are not important enough to have their own Thread" Thread

    Jumpers and coats for goalposts back in the days , the height ot the crossbar was debatable on many occasions . Coats and youngsters playing football on a local stretch of Village fields and greens are long gone . Well done to local areas who keep the enthusiasm going at the local level , but...

    Had the box set of The Following as a Xmas present a few years ago , I do like a thriller and this was a gift . Started ok but then degeneated into being unwatchable , will never ever view it again . Think I took the dvd package to the local recycling centre soon after , horrible scenes on...

    Dr Poo

    Just watched the latest episode on catch up , Lux I believe the title of the broadcast . Still view out of sentiment to The Daleks and The Cybermen . What I seen earlier on my telebox was garbage , CGI dominated and so many innuendos to the past events . Tough times then I appreciate but easy...

    Clem Burke RIP

    Carl Palmer is still going strong on the drums gladly , a great live solo performer during his spotlight showcase . Where do you start looking at Blondie and Debbie Harrys career and soundtrack over the years for us oldies . Sad news , think he was drumming at Blondies Glastonbury slot a few...

    Costas

    Went to The Millers a few years back for a special family event , what a let down from an expected decent venue . Even the chef peering out on the customers looked embarrased , a complaint to the Manager over the lateness of the food was , do you want another drink or free dessert , we aint had...

    Andy Peebles RIP

    Must have missed the nonsene waffle of Sarah Cox announcing herself as a Bolton lass followed by her being a proud born and bread Northener . Last time I looked Bolton was in Lancashire , bit away from them up North . Name dropping is another issue grinding my gears , you chatted to some...

    What Ewe Watching

    Cpt. J T Kirk of the starship Enrerprise will still bring back memories of the original series of Star Trek . Spock , Bones , Scotty and Ulhara were the groundbreaking must see tele back then , loved it . The unknown actor brought in as an extra and for one scene will end up as a victim of...

    Played Pontardawe Arts Centre late last year , good turn out and Focus acknowleged the audience . 25 quid to see a classic rock band on your doorstep , lets ave it . Reading up I believe up in Cardiff on their next appearences around this area . Worth a trip up the M4 if Hocus Pocus and...

    What Ewe Watching

    Just struggled through to the end of Series 3 of Colony , watched it out of loyalty I suppose . What an effort and looks like the CGI and Sfx guys threw the towel in too , a dalek would have looked a part . Seems like series 4 was cancelled , I am not surprised .

    Sayings from back in the day you rarely hear...

    Parlour , the posh front room for guests on a Sunday Afternoon tea gathering . Scullery yes , seem to recall it being called the back kitchen when I heared my parents talking . Coalman tipping a cwt of coal into the outside bunker and I had to shovel it into a tin bucket to get to the...

    Radio 1 back in the day when it was never overun by ridicolous presenters waffling on about nonsense . Today the listening audience lap it up , send us your texts , photos , voice mails etc, we will big you up . Andy Peebles always had a neutral approach to broadcasting , Manchester based it I...

    Sounds of the 70s Earlier

    Hard work to replace JW on that Sunday afternoon slot , big boots to fill . Gave Whispering Bob a few listens from the outset but slowly drifted away from his broadcasts on R2 . Thought he was going down the Country and Western genre on my first few impressions on hearing . Maybe he has...

    Binge watching Colony on ITV X catch up , great start to the story but really running out of steam towards the end of the series . Will stick it out for the last two episodes due to a loyalty to the programme and whatever cliffhanger awaits . Three initial series where made , the expected forth...

    Covid Reflection Day

    The Supermarket I work in had a controlled and in fairness a sensible approach used by the customers . Maybe we were lucky to get off lightly in respect of sickness and some long term effects . My good mate was asked to sign a DNR request regarding his mothers ill health and possible outcomes...
