• 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

George Friend latest player to be linked to us from Middlesborough.

Why bring in a left back for one season unless Joh or Bidwell ar leaving? I would hope Jordi Govea would have overcome his injury problems too.

Is Govea any good?
He's got hamstrings like Jeff.
 
Very good but ... as you point out is and has been hampered by injury.

I only saw him play once for the under 23's & it was his first game back after injury so not fair to judge him on that.
Can't have long left on his contract either??
 
Sebastiano Luperto from Napoli on loan according to Italian sources.
 
Luperto would be a top signing, type of signing we need.

Someone posted that we are eyeing up some interesting deals.

What do you know about signore Luperto?
 
Had a look on Twitter and the only info I can find on the Luperto link is a fake/parody account tweeting it.

Even if this story is a non starter, I hope this is an indication that we are looking outside the box for signings. The previous rumours over a Portuguese and Romanian player would also point towards this strategy too.

Didn’t we have Gerry Tremmel scouting for us in Germany a few years back? He suggested Benda for us. I think he’s not associated to the club now, but we’re building a good reputation for developing young players. Maybe not on the same scale as Leipzig or Brentford as two examples, but that’s what we should be aiming for.

It looks to be a complete made up story so it doesn't really give us any indication of what we are doing. If the rumour Darran heard about the Romanian fella signing pre contract then I would agree, things quiet all over the shop at the moment in terms of transfers. I don't think there will be a lot of business done this summer with any clubs due to Covid. The signing of Moore at a modest fee for Cardiff I would say is pushing to boat out at present.
 
Kevin Stewart, defensive CM on a free being linked by Sky - just left Hull & ex-LFC youngster.

Could be a great signing on a free, seems we were linked with him in 2017 but Liverpool didn't want to sell.

If it’s the one I’m thinking of he was absolutely dreadful against us at the KC

Edit - It wasn't, he was on bench. Not sure whether that's a good thing or not.
 
Not sure about Stewart - not good enough for a really poor Hull side (yes we made them look like world beaters)
As one person you can only do so much but Hull shipped a shed load of goals when he was picked.
