• 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

I know a few people who have said that he’s the next star through. I saw him play for the U21s when he was 17 and he completely controlled the game, whereas Ogbeta was getting his ass handed to him by a kid that looked about 12.
You can’t judge someone on one game but I’ve naturally held a hope with this one.

Be fantastic if he can make it, probably needs to bulk up a little. I have only seen him play once or twice, so can't make any claims. I've read mixed comments from others that have seen him on a regular basis. He should have started the Millwall game instead of that Chelsea loanee to give him some league exposure.

Not just from that tweet :)
We set a deadline for the paperwork of Wednesday morning UK time
We didn't receive it, we tried calling them multiple times but they ghosted us (pulled a Huw on us)
Later this morning we said we would pull out of the deal if it wasn't completed in a timely manner
A little after lunch time we got a video call from his club ironing out the last details and submitting the paperwork

There are numerous links throughout today on newsnow, this may just be me putting two and two together and getting five but historically its not the first time his club screwed up a move for him away (previously was to the MLS)
 
Pretty much announced himself at this point, especially with a new section he’s added on his insta for “swansea city fc”……. wonder what the holdup is

Looks promising and by all accounts a hefty resale percentage so there must be potential there

Him, Ronald and ginnelly as our three main wingers going in to August doesn't look shabby at all.

Happy with Bradshaw as a back up but we need a proper striker.

Ginnelly/ronald could be an option as a 10 too

I’ve no idea what he’s like, but I would judge potential based on what the Americans agree to in the contract. They don’t have the best record with judging value!
 
Looking forward to seeing this lad play.

The no 10 shirt & a 4 year deal suggests we rate him very highly.
 
Comes across as a humble but ambitious lad from his interview.
Hopefully we can help him settle in to a new country quickly and make him feel welcome.

That gives us Eom, Ginelly and Ronald who can play across the front three behind the striker with youth in the form of Cooper, Parker and Abdulai who can provide cover.

Main priorities for me now are goalkeeper, centre half and at least one striker.
