• 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

    Not sure which Darling mistake you're referring to, but the back pass that was too short and Vig saved with his foot as Osmajic tried to go around him ... well, that was Fulton's back pass. AoC got it wrong in real time but corrected himself after seeing the replay.

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    It's a real pity because there's a good footballer in there somewhere. Some decent coaching could sort him out. In the meantime he needs to cut out these mistakes which are costing us dearly.

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    Good analysis. The only thing I'd say is that in the diagram, the RB runs into basically the number 10 position and gets the ball there. But as you say (I think) Key runs with the ball, more often than not starting in his own half and ending up somewhere around the centre circle.

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    I might be wrong but I don't think LW is telling Key to go on meandering runs down blind alleys into midfield. He does tell him to play an inverted full back sometimes but that's a different kettle of fish. I think the problem is that Key's not sure what to do when he gets the ball and his...

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    OK. Here's my last snapshot. This is Norwich's third goal. Key intercepts the ball. He dithers for a second (familiar?), Dobbin robs him, runs through and scores.

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    Norwich's first goal is interesting. It starts with Key (sorry) in a very advanced right wing position crossing the ball straight to their keeper. Key ends up flat on his back and Ronald ends up at RB as Norwich counter. I'll leave this snapshot of Norwich's counter. Tymon is struggling to...

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    I think there's a difference here between playing the inverted full-back role, which he's instructed to do in certain games, and carrying the ball from the right back position into a congested midfield, which I'm pretty sure he's not instructed to do. Key has played the former - I first noticed...

    Directly behind Grimes. I was going to list Key's options but thought I'd leave it as an exercise for the reader.

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    I don't believe for one minute that LW wants Key to carry the ball into the centre circle from that position. It was a simple pass to Grimes - even Cullen could see it. I bet LW regrets the Bale comment now. I quite liked Key at first but he's now becoming a liability.

    Josh Key's Footballing Masterclass

    Just thought I'd post this little gem from yesterday's game. We've just equalised, so you'd think for the next few minutes we'd keep it tight and not do anything stupid - because the last thing you'd want is to concede immediately thereafter. Josh Key intercepts the ball. He has options -...

    Players going over to clap the away support. Pathetic.

    Season 24/25 | The Official Match Thread | Norwich 5 Swansea 1 | The EFL Championship

    We are the better of two poor sides at the moment, which isn't saying much. A special mention for Cullen and Key who have been awful. And MPH who plays like he can't be arsed. Their goal was inevitable.

    Stream Turned Off? Swans TV

    I had to watch the last 5 mins or so on a dodgy stream. My conscience is clear though because I paid for the game!

    Stream Turned Off? Swans TV

    Ah, is that what happened? I thought I'd inadvertently closed my browser window. After that I couldn't find the link to go back to the stream.
