• 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

If he’s being reasonable for an asking price, he’d generate interest for sure. I might’ve read or heard that he’s been asking for £200M(quote me if I’m wrong), which is just unrealistic. I’d say £30-£40M tops.

No way, someone involved with Cardiff City being unrealistic, nay, frivolous, even?

Get outta town.
 
When he loses the last throw of the Sala dice, he'll hopefully sell anything that isn't bolted down and cut his losses.

When is the final hearing for that? For some reason I want to say September?
 
They're super fan Gareth Bale now taking over their league 1 rivals😂😂
 
Sorry to say, but I think Cardiff may finally have made a good managerial appointment. His limited and mediocre track record and the divergence in playing style are reasons why he may fail, but BBM could be the manager that gets them playing with a coherent style, maximizing the quality in their youth setup.

The last thing we should be is smug and complacent. If they achieve instant success by largely drawing in their academy, it will make recruitment and retention of our academy prospects even more difficult. In Wales' recent U19s games we only had Sam Parker, whereas Cardiff had 5 (IIRC, plus 3 who had been poached).

If our owners are genuinely ambitious they need to give some thought to our academy, and especially it's categorization.

They rubbish mum, enjoy it while it lasts. They’ll either turn it around at some point or we’ll end up stinking the place out more them so give ‘em all the stick you can while you can.
 
Paul Clement was a highly rated coach (he's still Ancelotti's go-to guy. Currently assistant boss with Brazil) but was never much of a manager. Cardiff seem to be putting a hell of a lot of faith in BBM to be different despite the evidence to the contrary so far.
 
Some of their fans seem to think they are going to being playing like Citeh on day 1.
Well of course they do.

In the same way they think they "should" have been challenging for the playoffs with that squad last season, instead of getting relegated with it.

Minor details like relegation to the third tier won't stop Cardiff fans from thinking it won't be long until they reclaim their rightful place at the top of European football.

Paddy Murphy is going to be the man to start the rebirth, just you watch!
