• We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

I wish Russ had a Plan B.

Was at the game yesterday and it was plain to see that after Blackpool scored, they were happy to concede possession to us, putting everyone behind the ball. But everything was played in front of them. We lack that cutting edge sometimes to break through the lines. I know it’s not very Swanseaesq, but I wish we’d just put the odd long ball in the channel for someone to run onto or put a cross in the box, and pick up a second ball. Make the defenders turn and face their own goal. It’s too easy for the opposition sometimes against us. So bloody frustrating!

He clearly has. It’s just shit unless you are managing Man City. Even then it’s not as good as Klopp’s plan.
 
We're currently duller than Cooperball. That's some achievement.

Don't think we particularly need a Plan B. Last time we got someone obsessed with that, it basically led to the collapse of Plan A. But he could really do with speeding everything up, otherwise I'm taking a book next Saturday.

Well I was at the game yesterday and must say I was on my feet for 90 minutes !
Not through excitement though.
Just I was in the front row and a never ending parade of people meant I wouldn't have seen the game otherwise.
Might have been better sitting down mind ... :roll:
