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

I still think there's a player in Grimes, he was great under Potter last season but like so many others this year he has regressed greatly. He's not a captain at the moment maybe this season will give him that bit more experience.
I think the naivety and the age of the squad showed when Ayew was down injured for a period of time in the second half and you could hear absolute silence on the pitch. Leaders at that point would of been trying to galvanise the group etc but no the camera panned on Cooper and he was just stood there.
I do fear for us next season and its quite obvious we will be using the loan market again. I don't think we have been so confused over a manager. Has he done a good job? Or do we have to thank the players.
Anyway big summer ahead.

Grimes is shouldering a burden he shouldn't be shouldering. He's not a captain by any stretch, but giving him the armband makes him undroppable, even when we have better options. Gallagher looked happier in the 20 minutes he had as a more central midfielder (the same position he shone in at Charlton) than he has all season at #10. Being prepared to drop Grimes deeper (or at all) could have accommodated that and allowed us to play a more traditional #10 like Celina or Dandha in that slot for more of the season. Our over reliance on him as a set piece taker has also been an issue. Rarely have I seen someone so mediocre at taking set pieces be so consistently entrusted with them.
He's not a bad player, but our use of him as if he were a great one has done nobody any favours, him or the team.
