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

Looking at the table, I was surprised to see Reading and Stoke around us. Three clubs who could be doing better.
Russ missed a trick against Birmingham with his subs. Next game may be his last. Not a good time for any manager to be losing games and dropping down the table.

No you've just singled me out for some fucking reason, when we've played well I've stated as such. I'm just fucked off with the club and the manager and squad and I tell it like I see it,just put me on fucking ignore.

Yeah bollocks, I don't see you pulling up on all the other negative posters tonight, like I said just put me on ignore, you've made it personal against me it's plain for all to see.

Probably because you’re a twat. :lol:
Rather than looking at it as 2 wins in 16 (which itself is a terrible statistic and is relegation form) it should also be coupled with the fact that we have such a terrible loss record despite being I think it was the 4th highest scoring team in the league.
Our defence is one of the worst in the division and we have becoming terrifyingly vulnerable to late goals since March last season with no end to that trend in sight.
You could argue that RM has access to one of the youngest attacking squads in the division and only a few sides have signed more players than us once you compare to when we first hired him. The damning statistic here is how few of those players are still in his first team plans, how many he has had very public fallings out with and how many were just frozen out and forced to be sent on loan.
This to me screams of a manager who cannot organise a defence, is poor at game management, poor at man management and sadly is over fixated on possession as a statistic than on doing something with that possession - I don't know how to find it as a stat but I think we must be one of the lowest sides in the division for shots per minute in possession.

Says everything about this league that with 2 wins in 15/16 games, we still mid table FFS.
Just think if wed have only won another 3/4 games in that?
The fact that he can't muster anything....gotta wonder hows he not lost the dressing room?

Assuming he hasn't. It's notable that most player comments are coming from Grimes.

Yes. Grimes is part of the problem. Why on earth is he captain?
