• 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

Andrew Symonds RIP

Bloody hell! A great player and part of a strong Aussie set up at the time, also a thorn in England’s side on many occasions.
 
Saw him maul Glamorgan at Abergavenny.Absolutely fabulous player.What a waste.
 
Good lord! I've only just seen this!
What a shock.
An amazing player on his day.
He used to belt sixes for fun when he had his eye in.
RIP

Ben Stokes recently broke his record for the most sixes in an innings (Symmonds v Glamorgan)

A wonderful maverick of a cricketer, who turned down a Test call up for England for the dream of a baggy green cap of Australia - but a career and life blighted by booze.

RIP

Yes, I did some reading last night concerning his cricket records and off pitch behaviour. Despite his issues he was definitely someone you want in your team rather than in the opposition.
 
This bothered me more than Warne. I was a big fan of his c.2007 when he was at his peak. Explosive with the bat, a world-class fielder and chipped in with the ball too

The police went out of their way yesterday to stress that they have no reason to suspect drink was involved. Hopefully it was just a tragic accident
