• 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

Just as well you aren't in charge of recruitment after today's goal by super Jay.
Good job you aren't either , or we would still have Sheehan in charge, and be dropping like a stone.

Matos’s results and the side’s performances since taking over with the same squad justifies his taking over for sure.

If we get something out of Sunday we got a chance to rest most of the first string next weekend with the cup with our next game after that a full week later
 
To be fair to Fulton, he has stood up and had a positive impact on the team since Matos has come in. That's all we wanted, the fans. The jury is still out on my side, yes after what 12 years 😂, but credit where its due.
 
Funny how a goal changes perception of a player, Cullen scores and he is raved about for a while ignoring his obvious flaws. Similar to Fulton today, his goal has bought adoration for a few months with the fan base.

Alternative, grown up views have also been available as well mind. Not lazy hysterics by a number of posters.

Is labelling other people's posts you don't agree with as "lazy hysterics" the act of a grown up?

Just curious.

See post in the match day thread for the very latest example of it. Hope that answers your question, there’s a plethora of other made up Fulton nonsense on here if you look, you may even have posted some yourself (I’m not going to check).

I'm not going to check as I've got better things to do, but as you're obviously the gatekeeper of grownupness on this forum I thought I'd ask.
 
I’ve always been of the opinion that Jay Fulton was/is a decent squad member, whom managers throughout our second stint in the Championship have rated for what must be his consummate professionalism, and commitment to the cause.

Yes he’s got his foibles and faults which deeply frustrates me at times, namely, when his first contribution on the field of play has on occasion been, to receive a yellow card for a reckless challenge on an opposing player, and sometimes in an area where the opposition team can score from a direct or indirect free kick.

However, I can see the value in him as someone who gives his all, nearly every time he enters the fray for the Swans.

There is also one characteristic of Fulton that is to be applauded, and that is his exemplary injury record.

I can’t think of a time when he couldn’t be called upon to join his teammates on the pitch, either from the 1st half kickoff or when being summoned from the bench as a substitute.

This is an invaluable attribute to have, and one which often gets overlooked. It’s almost like it’s taken for granted, when it shouldn’t be.

The goal that he scored for us yesterday certainly would have put a cat amongst the pigeons, in terms of putting his detractor’s noses out of joint, and keeping them quiet for a game or two.

In the meantime, I am hoping that the goal is a springboard for what may turn out to be something of a Renaissance for the player, and he finally gets the credit that he so richly deserves.
