• 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

What a great initiative from the club, i wont add the spoiler but speaks volumes of the man.

Never knew Alan Curtis went through that. What a man, and a lovely tribute by the club.
 
Lovely video of him and his wife. Well done the club on taking up this charity, to make people more aware of getting checked early.
I’m going to make an appointment with my doctors for another prostate checkup.
Had one about 10 yrs ago.
 
That is our best looking kit for donkeys years.

A great cause / message for it to be associated with too.

A true bastard of an illness.
 
Great choice of charity partner and great use of third kit.

Well done to all involved in the decision.
 
Each cancer journey is highly personal and individual, so don't feel bad that you didn't highlight it at the time Curt. You did what you needed to for your family and now you're using your profile to raise awareness.

I'll be getting one and will hopefully figure out what colour the cancer I had is!
 
Can only endorse the comments on here around choice of charity partner by the Club 👏👏👏
My Dad overcame prostate cancer some seven years ago now and the support and encouragement of everyone at Maggies was absolutely instrumental in both his physical and mental recovery.

He was so proud to tell me that one day Leon visited Maggies and gave an inspirational talk then my Dad told him that Paul Clement was ‘so wrong’ in not playing him at the time (or words to that effect !!) then next game Leon is picked again by Clement (remember the mug 🤔😁) and scores !!
My Dad then thinks he’s got the Midas touch and is the new Jose Morinho but what an amazing uplift it really gave him through his treatment !!

Having met Clare Curtis in a business capacity for several years as well as with her and Curt at the Liberty (yes I know it’s 🙄 .com etc ) I can honestly say that they are such a lovely, warm, caring humble couple they truly deserve each other.

Great choice by the Club and remember lads ‘get yourself checked out’ 👊👊👊
