• 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

He applied for the Doncaster job a few weeks ago which doesn’t really support that.

It was completely obvious he wasn’t coming when he stayed to ‘assist’ QPR in a pre season friendly. If he was taking the job, why would they want him to do that.

He may well have retreated from the Donny job when it came to the crunch had he been offered it I suppose. Sometimes you apply for jobs and it’s only when you get them it focuses one’s mind. Especially if the current employer then makes a no risk counter offer…

Possibly, although it was reported they chose someone else instead of him and he came second. That may be just spin of course.
 
So the assistant manager of QPR has turned down an opportunity to manage a club that has just missed out on promotion to the Premier league then...

Something is seriously wrong at our club, indeed, the word of one of the coaches in the academy "the club is a shambles".

What like Cooper taking the game last week??

That was a manager. QPR have a manager. It’s the keeping of the assistant that would be odd. Manager you’ll keep if it’s helpful which would be less odd.
 
but financially sound*. Who is this coach then lad?

*just before the inevitable, this doesn't mean we can spunk millions on players.

The club has been "a shambles" for 10 years apparently - fuck off and support man city then

Mind your own fùckin business. Lad
 
We don't know the reason yet, I'm of the opinion it maybe more QPR persuasion to stay as they are apparently building a good team and style there. Possible lining up to take over #1 on Warburton moving on.
 
Lest we forget, this whole sorry mess goes back to the bar stewards who the Trust are suing.
 
I don't want to say that we're a poisoned chalice, because we have a great club here.

However, I think anyone who signs up to this job has to accept that on paper, he'll be seen as less than Steve Cooper. We won't finish higher than we did last season without Ayew. Now, we all know that there's more to it than that, but the people outside will just see a (e.g.) 12th place finish vs what Cooper achieved.

There's the professional gamble. It's easy for us to say he can take the helm at a club that was in the playoffs the last few years...but it's not as simple as that. They're all on the big bucks, even assistant managers and coaches.

It's going to be Tosh Jr.

Potter came 10th and got a premier league gig. I don’t understand why someone in Eustace’s position would turn it down, unless things were a lot worse than any of us could imagine. Which is why I’m worried.
