• 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

Looking at his time with up over the piece, he didn't really endear himself to anyone did he? Players, fans, owners, club cat. You can only do that if you keep winning, and even then it can't last. Very odd behaviour really...then again...Yorkshire...

A couple of wins next week would be very welcome. We hardly ever win at the freezing shitehole off the A50, but this time it would be lovely.

Just got a text off my Millwall mate that went to the Piggery yesterday. "s**t game, s**t fans, s**t club, s**t ground, we were s**t but should never have lost. Pile of s**t"

Milwall better side by all accounts. How the fuckers keep on getting wins is beyond me.

Will go down as one of the luckiest clubs in history for not getting relegated last season

Yeah in hindsight the appointment was wrong from the start.....certain people in power took on this pragmatic, results based manager rubbish as if it would just happen! The relief was there for all to see at the final whistle.

He had his usual slow start, as he has at previous clubs, got four good performances out of the squad (Grimes was a revelation), and then we seemed to go backwards, albeit during a run of games against some very tough opponents. Seems harsh to sack him so quickly when we gave the previous manager two full seasons to practice his Pep tribute act. Take out the first six games and our points per game weren’t bad - I think replicated across the season they’d have been enough for us to finish tenth, which feels about right for the current players at the manager’s disposal. So I don’t accept this ‘he was a catastrophe from the start’ which some people are running with, but nor can I summon up much regret about it. Not like I was ‘all in’ for him :lol:
