• 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

    BLAZE RIP

    I am also late to this thread and it's shocking to hear this very sad news. My deepest sympathies to all his family and many, many friends. From what I can remember he wasn't shy in telling the likes of me off for being little tinkers whilst under the influence...... I think I used to tell him "...

    Ronnie Barker/That's TV sky ch183

    I have been re-watching Porridge the last few Saturday nights on one of the sky channels and as I get older I can't help realise that this genius was so far ahead of his time. It's hard to believe he died over 15 years ago. Also Kenny Everett and Alf Garnett are on. Crazy, nonsensical and...

    Hacienda club documentary

    BBC 2 10.15pm tonight Did anyone on here ever go? I read a book about it by one of the owners who was in New Order (Peter Hook) It was a good read.

    Receipts for your clocks

    Anyone having any luck finding theirs? Apparently they have to go back tonight. How inconvenient.😤

    Bob Mortimer fans

    His new book "The Satsuma Complex" is worth a read. I'm not normally into fiction but I enjoyed as his style of writing is very much how he speaks with his bizarre and comedic quirks.

    Good places to go for a Xmas lunch....before Xmas

    Following on from Dar's thread about Norton House. Where else would be nice to go before Xmas Day for a festive meal? Preferably in Swansea or Carmarthenshire area?

    Paxman doesn't look or sound well

    On University Challenge I can hear he's slurring a bit and he doesn't look at all well. I think he has Parkinsons. Fair play to him to keep going.

    The gaffer, Russel Martin

    Discuss..... As a club have we allowed him time to "experiment"? I mean we know we are financially limited but have an incredible support and fully aware of who plays for shirt and follows the identity of our club 3 derby wins on the bounce now....that is some boast for a manager that even I...

    What a learning curve for us

    Now that the derby is out of the way and all that it means and quite rightly stands for, we can have it in our "locker" that we have a mentality that can see us compete to get out of this division to a higher level. So many will have "grown up" and learnt from today and the midweek comeback...
