• 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.

Thank goodness we learned all our lessons and had planned meticulously for this window. We might have been in a spot of bother, else.
 
Good job we haven’t got anyone in charge of the football side of the club as I’d be absolutely fuming with him.
 
This stuff really isn’t easy when you know what you are doing, especially in January. When you have no idea what you’re doing but think you’re great, it’s nigh on impossible. I hope they don’t try and panic buy. We just need to suck it up, get rid of Coco the Clown (have I mentioned that?) and beat some dog teams that are even more canine than us.
 
We failed to get a young defender from Wycombe and a midfielder from Leyton Orient. Both out of contract in the summer.
We must be screwed financially.

Or they don’t want to join a struggling championship club that (in their eyes) is based in the arse end of nowhere, when they believe they will get something more palatable.
 
Up until selling Grimes I don’t think a lot happened on the pitch. We’ve struggled to create all season and we’ve been making defensive mistakes all season. That all came together for a few games.

Something’s happened behind the scenes though. I thought Williams’ links to WBA was a load of bollocks (why the hell would they want him?). But that seems to have been more disruptive that I’d have thought.

By “quite well” I mean we were solid. Still not creating a lot and still subject to fecking up at the back, but it was a platform we could build on by adding quality. Now it’s just a shitshow.

The struggling is possibly relevant, but the geography is neither here nor there.
