• 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

Jimmy McLaughlin RIP ...

My playing hero in 1964 on the epic cup run to the semi-final at Villa Park, I was there on that murky wet day, on a sodden muddy pitch. Went with my mum and dad, and Jimmy scored the first goal to give us a 1-0 lead by half time. Of course Preston broke our hearts in the 2nd half with a penalty and a freak goal from the half way line. Feels like yesterday, even though I'm nearly 75 now. RIP Jimmy.
 
RIP Jimmy. I only remember him from his 70s return with the north bank singing his name to jimmy mac the Martha Reeves song of the same name.
Don't know why when I remember Jimmy I also think of Pat Lally.
