• 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

Much is said about "big" sides never taking the two cup competitions seriously but since us and Wigan won the domestic cups in 2012/13 these are the two lists of winners of the two cups

FA Cup
2014 - Arsenal
2015 - Arsenal
2016 - Man Utd
2017 - Arsenal
2018 - Chelsea
2019 - Man City
2020 - Arsenal
2021 - Leicester

League Cup
2014 - Man City
2015 - Chelsea
2016 - Man City
2017 - Man Utd
2018 - Man City
2019 - Man City
2020 - Man City
2021 - Man City

16 cups and just 1 (Leicester) outside the perceived Big 5 (Two Manchester Clubs, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea)

Is this an indication of the "big" teams getting stronger squads and therefore able to negotiate a way through to the final easier or the "smaller" teams playing weaker sides and therefore cancelling out any advantage they may have?
 
No. It’s a measure of how incredible and wonderful our winning of the cup was. Ditto Wigan.
