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

And I was there ! Always remember the Valencia fans behind the goal didn’t come out initially ( I think ) for the start of the 2nd half as a protest against the owners.
And after the game walking back to the city centre, with our Swans shirts on, their fans were applauding us. What a night !

Yep I was there.
Flew in to Barcelona . One night there.
Rental car. Long drive. 2 nights in Valencia.
Their fans and locals so friendly.
Outside stadium before kick off , a few hundred Swans fans singing for an hour or two.
The locals watching and filming and have to say enjoying. It was a great atmosphere.
I had a top with Chico on the back. ( no longer fits).
A wonderful city. An even better match and result.
Would love another European adventure. Can’t beat it.
If the chance ever comes again to follow the Swans abroad, take it. Do not hesitate. The memory will last a lifetime.

Yes, you were right about the protest.
After the game. me and my mate, sadly no longer with us, were waiting to cross a street alongside a few Valencia fans and a couple of them who spoke really good English started chatting to us and were very complimentary about the team's performance and were enjoying the fans' exemplary behaviour which made us feel so proud of he club we had become. Brilliant night and my favourite away trip by miles - in fact, just over 800 miles! And I have a framed 10x8 on my wall of that photo in the original post that I took of the scoreboard just after de Guz's incredible free kick for our 3rd.
