We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

I’d rather watch Beatles night.

That relatively recent version of 'Under Milk Wood' featuring an eclectic mix of Welsh actors and performers was very good (Tom Jones, Dave Coaches, Charlotte Church), but I was whacked and had to give up after half an hour because my eyelids were dropping.
There's no BBC iplayer available here, unfortunately.
Quite a bold move picking Tom Jones as Captain Cat, but of course as a Port Talbot boy, I thoroughly approved of Michael Sheen as the Narrator and he was great. The opening five minutes of UMW in particular really highlights Dylan's brilliant way with words. "Slow black, crow black" and all that. Can you think of any better way to evoke the way boats in the harbour would move gently in the swell in the middle of the night but "tilt and ride"?
