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
BLAZE RIP

Heck, I did not know about Ebo. Apologies if this is the wrong place to mention.

Well that was a tough,emotional,beautiful afternoon for a beautiful man.
A great turn out and lots of tears as you’d expect for such a special person.
Kev Johns officiated and he was outstanding and did it to perfection.
Fair play to Bill driving down from Carlisle for the service too.
Love you James.

Beautiful. I’m so sorry for your pain and the hole left by BLAZE’s passing. The poor sod, that’s no age. Life’s a bitch, but if it wasn’t for that life he wouldn’t have been able to make such an impression on those who knew him.Well that was a tough,emotional,beautiful afternoon for a beautiful man.

James would definitely have gone to this,I’ve never been a huge Maiden fan but I might have gone to this with him.
I absolutely love Knebworth I’ve been there three times.

One of James' old school friends was at the funeral and they'd recently reconnected after 20 years. His partner works for iron maiden, advertising department possibly. He said to me that when the new tour was announced a week or two ago, his first thoughts were "we could have had VIP access, James would've loved it"

I just found this that James sent me after we’d beaten them 3-0 in 2014.
