• 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

If you make the assumption that it's a 1 in 4 chance lottery;

In 8 play off campaigns we would expect to make the Final 4 times and get promoted twice.

We've already done that in 7 campaigns (we actually did it in our first 6).

So statistically this time we should expect a semi final defeat - Good luck Barnsley in the Final. However each campaign is really a discrete event so technically it's still 1 in 4 chance this year, notwithstanding the bookies having us as 4th favourites.

None of which explains the abysmal record of Nottingham Forest and their numerous play off capitulations.
