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

Brian had an unusual claim to fame - when he played for Exeter City in a friendly against the Swans in 1967, whilst still a Swan - as Exeter could not raise enough players to make a team.
He later went on to make his league debut against Exeter.
RIP Brian YJB

So sorry to here of Brian's death played football with Brian & Cyril at Maesteg Park happy memories wish I was there now.
Born in Swansea in 1948, a former Welsh schoolboy, he signed as a professional in September 1966, having been an apprentice at his home town club, he actually made his league debut for the Swans against Exeter in a 1-1 draw in the same month.
He joined Yeovil Town in July 1970 and helped them to win the Southern League title and reach the FA Cup third round in 1970-71.
He signed for Folkestone in July 1972, and later played for Merthyr Tydfil.
My condolences to Anne & her family at this sad time. I worked with Anne for many years and would have contact with Brian during that period. X
