• 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

I'm definitely warming to the idea. I often criticised Williams for not having a plan B and on reflection my criticism of the way Sheehan set us up against Derby may have been a little harsh.

Not sure if he's doing a good job or the move away from this tippy tappy nonsense has got me all giddy.

I would say we have both been quiet close in our opinions on Sheehan out of most people on here. I think Sheehan brings something alot of what other managers over last few season have not brought. Adaptability. Not sure if it's the wins but I too am slowly turning my opinion. In truth, it's the constant lower league managers of Duff, Williams and Martin that has scared me with Sheehan. His lack of experience makes me feel we will fire him this time next year. But... Him bringing his own coaches seen to have helped. I do seem to question his selection on match day and he is proving he is right. He is choosing sides based on the game that is in front of him. I suppose my highest critism of Sheehan is, playing Fulton and Cullen. But I undertand why with Allen getting on and Mixing it up.

I feel like it's once bitten, twice shy.

Same as you, the other managers we've had are possibly clouding my judgement of Sheehan.

I can't wait for the day Fulton leaves the club. It will feel like a clean sweep of the club with the likes of him and Grimes leaving and hopefully a move away from all this sideways and backwards football.
 
Nothing wrong with changing opinions and if Sheehan is changing people's views then that's all good.....refreshing to see people say that they are changing their mind 👍

Even his staunched critics should be giving him some credit after the last couple of performances and I was definitely one of those.

I said no initially, but can't argue with the results and performances he's achieving. He may , with a few better quality players at the club, be a really good fit for us. If he continues like this till the end of season it's hard to see how they can give it to anyone else.
 
We have to win comfortably for me to continue my change of mind.

It’s like a game of Snakes & Ladders; lose at home in a drab and lacklustre 0-1 and I’ll be heading down the big snake.
Pretty much how I feel about it all.

More Plymouth, Sunderland and less Derby and Burnley 👍🏼
