• 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

Just sing when you’re winning and have a large glass of positivity. Life must be so boring if you take such a dim view on proceeding. Scoring points on a faceless forum doesn’t count as success.

I’m a very optimistic and happy person. But when it comes to football, I’m a realist. We’re nowhere near good enough for the playoffs or promotion. The Premier League would eat us, chew us and spit us out.

Until we get new owners and a proper manager, we’ll float around Championship midtable obscurity.

You do know that if we get promoted to the prem that they give us a big bag of money to buy better players right... Just checking because I get the feeling you are looking at the prospect thru t uh he eyes off the present team.

I remember being at Wembley when we gained promotion to the prem and worrying how we would fair... The rest is history.

Might get a big bag of money, but there’s no guarantee it will be spent on players!

Indeed. It will all be filtered out of the club via hidden channels and into the pockets of anonymous folk in America.
 
70pts is the average to gurantee you a play off spot in this league, 4 more wins come on….

I know that’s a teasing reply but just wondering if following the Trust sellout, there’s any need for “hidden channels” now anyway. Cant they just take dividends and ignore the Trust in the way the shareholding bit of the “agreement” has been allowed to be enacted?

Yeah yeah, I know. It was a response better served for a place where the conspiracy theorists thrive.

Don't do it to yourselves. We always get to excited.

We're a midtable side, not a Top 6 side. We might win a few but then we draw and lose a few. Rinse repeat.

I was right, I always am. We are terrible. Bad owners, average players and a League One manager who thinks he’s Pep Guardiola.

I’d take this manager, watching this style of football over what we endured with Cooper every day of the week

There is no guarantee of anything in this life except death and taxes... My point was, I thought the same thing when we got to the prem but look at the first few seasons, more than held our own but then you knew that.

It's not like anything he's said in that post is even right. 😂

He was right we wouldn't make the playoffs, having made that point at a time when we were closer to the relegation places than the playoffs. Nostradamus he ain't.

We’ve made the playoffs have we? Last time I checked we were midtable.

Last season under Cooper, who you all wanted sacked, we did well. Not under this fraud Martin.

You need to work on your comprehension Rog, you seem to have misread my post.
