• 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

I'm a Grimes Fan and not one to single players out but stats can tell me he does this or that, but let's face it. We need to

1. Strip him of the arm band
2. Give it to a player that is vocal and gets reaction.

All Grimes does is team huddle, slightly clap his hands to bring his team enthusiasm up and then will blow his nose with one finger and walk off when we are losing. I never see him pull players up in the game.

I'm told by all the current and past managers he is great team captain. His wife has a WhatsApp group for all new players partners. Who cares. Give me a good old fashioned captain, non of this how's your wife.

The fact he is captain of the side is one of many problems we have got.

Easily the worst captain we've had in the 35 years I've been watching us.

He's about as inspiring as a bout of norovirus.
 
Wiliams harps on about a lack of mentality yet continues to pick Grimes and keep him as captain.

The captain of the club should be an extension of the manager on the pitch.

Every manager has lorded over him. It's not helping Williams playing him like he is in defence. That aside, he can perform and usually when he plays well the team does. Issue is, he has not done this as much this season. No issues with him in the team but need a different captain. Who? Go figure.

Spot on. Perfectly said. 👌👌👌
 
Grimes needs the armbands taking off him but who takes it?
I can't think of one who would deserve it.
