• 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

In many ways, much simpler times.

In other ways, not so much

Different expectations. Or not many really.

Football has changed, knocking out Doncaster away to draw Arsenal at the Vetch. Now how many times have we played them.

Different views to games now. We've achieved so much, but so much bad taste.
A bit of a squash on the North Bank for the Arsenal game. One of the few programmes I kept from around that time.

Yes definitely a game where you stayed where you were as no way would you get back there
 
Just went to look through my programmes for the Arsenal one and came across this one too.

I know I've still got the Arsenal programme in a box. Most likely got the Oxford one as well. Looking at that Oxford programme and advert that triggers the memory. Around that time did we have a centre half Doug Rosser?
 
Yes, Doug played for us during this time, but not in this game.

Thanks

Maybe Phil should have an extra board

All our yesterday's

😁
 
To think we could have beaten Arsenal in 68 and Leeds in 70 with a touch more luck.

And then we lost to Margate...
