• 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

Saw him play Alex Higgins in the Penlan Club around about the late 70’s.

RIP.
 
Always loved watching Doug play, and fondly remember his UK Championship win over Hendry. One of the legends. RIP.

Jesus christ! Alex Higgins in the Penlan Club. Now there's a recipe for disaster!
RIP Doug 🙏
 
Doug an ex miner, was renowned as a hard man on the snooker circuit, and not a person to fvck with. He was unlucky to be playing in an era of many good players.

He beat lung cancer in the early 1990's.

A true battler in snooker and life.

RIP Champ 🏆
 
RIP

I remember his daughter appearing in Mayfair magazine.
 
RIP
From an era when a lot of Welsh sports stars came from the mines and steel works

My mate beat Higgins in one of those exhibition tours they do, possibly around the same time. As my mate si slower than a limping slug, Higgins was near too exploding! :D :D :D
