• 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

This new documentary features in depth interviews with Ivor’s wife, Esme, and sons, John and David where the film gives – for the first time – the human story of the humble man behind the legend from those who knew him best.

Featuring personal stories and never before seen photos from the extensive family archive, ‘Ivor Allchurch – Golden Days’, it’s a story of incredible achievement underlined by a genuine humility and grounded respect for others which gives a unique insight into the life and career of this most gifted of footballers whose many achievements in the 1950’s and 60’s still stand to this day.

The film was commissioned by the Swansea City Supporters’ Trust and was made by David Brayley and Max Webborn, two of the three filmmakers behind the critically acclaimed football film, ‘Wonderland – The Alice Street Story’ (2023).

We hope you’ll be able to join us for this first public screening.

If anyone has any questions about this new documentary or the Taliesin Arts Centre screening, please email us at supporters@swanstrust.co.uk

For awareness we expect demand to see the first public screening of this film will be high so we advise you to book your tickets early to guarantee your attendance.

Thank you / Diolch
