• 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

Been building the matchday thread this time around with some derbies from the past - highlights, photos and match reports

Part 1 - Cardiff 0 Swansea 1 - Marvellous Marvin secures the win - link here

Part 2 - Swansea 3 Cardiff 0 - Swans triumph on Monk's managerial debut - link here

Part 3 - Cardiff 2 Swansea 2 - the last derby at Ninian Park - link here

Part 4 - Swansea 1 Cardiff 0 - Gomez settles first Liberty derby - link here

Part 5 - Swansea 3 Cardiff 2 - Pratley double secures Swans Liberty win here

Part 6 - The battle of Ninian Park - the night that changed the South Wales derby forever here

Part 7 - Allon's overhead kick in a 2-2 draw in 1987 here

Part 8 - It's a 3-3 draw at Ninian Park and a Buchanan special in 1980 here

Part 9 - The Swans win the Welsh cup but Ante sees red at the Vetch in 1982 here
 
Beating them 3-0 and a helping hand towards their relegation under Ole Gunnar Solskjær was sweet.
A few weeks after the end of the season we saw him on our way out at Cardiff airport and I was wearing my Swans shirt. He noticed and grimaced.
 
Thought it was worth bumping this one to get people in the mood! 😂

Hardly surprising with your lot looking down the barrel of the first ever South Wales derby double.

The thought of watching you lot blow promotion is fairly interesting to be fair, like the last few weeks
