• 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

Flynn was a dreadful manager for us. He brought in some legends but I believe all those names above signed permanently in his second season when he was sacked after a few weeks for being complete and utter gash.

Flynn was sacked in March. Nearly the whole season. Bit more than a couple of weeks.

He deserves some credit for revamping a relegation bound squad in mid season and keeping us up, even though he made an unnecessarily hard job of it by consistently playing his best striker on the wing. Ultimately his limit as a manager was about mid-table in League Two, which is where we parted ways. Better off than we were when he took over, and leaving something for his successor to work with, which is about the best you can hope for.

Plus there’s his first season where even though he had to clean up Cusacks mess he came in in September and it took him until the last game of the season to save us.
People get deflected by his signings,look at his managerial record with us and it’s complete gash.

Did he refuse to stop for a photo or something ;)

Far from perfect but advanced the team, kept us in the league and set us on the right direction. Which the next managers (again, up to Laudrup) continued to build on

Nah.

And far from perfect. Plus he was taking the piss out of us living in Burnley.

The last sentence i don't disagree with

But that doesn't mean he doesn't deserve some credit for pushing the club forward. Which he did.
