• 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

Gareth Bale MBE

Even if the queen was Welsh and this was a Welsh honours system it's still a disgusting decision given the situation of normal people these days to be endorsed by anything the monarchy or the Tory party decides to bestow on you.

The timing of this is no coincidence. Any Welsh person, nationalist or not should be suspicious. A couple of days out from Wales creating history it's a little nod for us to know our place - don't you lot go getting to proud or confident now. Kick in the teeth and it's sad Bale has gone along with it.

Seriously now, and I'm not saying this to be antagonistic, you need to speak to someone.

You (and others) are hero worshiping a multi-millionaire sportsman, yet go on about the situation of "normal" people. Have you listened to yourself?

I'd love to see Wales go Independent before i shuffle off, but some of you lot are bordering on extremist mun.

Am I hero worshipping him? I just go to football matches and shout his name like I for any footballer playing for a team I support.

Again, read my post, it's not about Welsh nationalism in the main. It's about it being 2022, people are using food banks and the parasite head of state and the fast becoming totalitarian dictator are issuing honours in the name of the 'British Empire'. Ffs. It's embarrassing. As are apologists such as yourself who apparently don't care, but take time to criticise people who do care.

Reckon you’re overthinking it mush.

Never a bad thing. Let's say it like it is, although I do envy the people who live their lives blissfully unaware or ignorant. Must be nice.
 
Read this thread. This bloke didn’t even know John Charles had a CBE. :lol:

Yes you and others are, by your reactions to him accepting a deserved award from his country.

I read it, and it still reads like the rantings of a madman, it's got Trampie written all over it in fact. I want an Independent Wales, I'd support a referendum vote on scraping the monarchy, but it's here at the moment. It's people with attitudes such as yours, which will ensure Wales will never become Independent. You're not the only one mind, there's plenty of you about, which is why the movement is more than stalling.

More grown men, not spotty Uni students trying to be edgy, who you could make allowances for.

Bale is dead, long live Charles :lol:

I don't agree with the honours system its archaic in this day and age for me, but I appreciate the fact that a Welshman such as Bale have been awarded the MBE in recognition for his achievements and what he's given Wales and particularly Welsh Football.

Can’t remember this fuss when King Curt was given his honours.

That’s because this has ruined the Wales super fans favourite song innit. Viva OBE, Viva OBE…
