• 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

Joe Allen will find it hard..

To get back into the side. Both Fulton and Grimes have been superb recently, and are striking up a really good midfield partnership.
 
Seriously? Joe Allen will have no problem replacing Fulton in the side , absolutely different class to him , more energy, more forward drive with the ball and quicker around the pitch .One of them has 72 caps for Wales and the other hasn't got any senior Scottish caps.

And one of them can last 90 minutes.

I’m a Grimes fan to a point but if anything it should be Allen for Grimes. No way Fulton should be booted out of the side on current form. He was our best midfielder and one of the best players on the pitch against Sunderland.
 
No player should find it easy to get into the side.

Fulton has been excellent lately. In truth he's rarely let us down in the past either. One of the most oddly underrated players on the books. Grimes may finally have worked out which direction the team plays in because lately he's been much more involved in attacking play and showing strong evidence of the player he actually can be. If anything Allen is going to replace Cundle.
 
Can you imagine that we were trying to give Fulton away for free?

Criminally underrated for a long time

Unless it's a play off final. He's that good we have been willing to listen to offers for him , and yet no team wants him . Compare him to Downes, who was here for 1 season and attracted interest from a few teams.

Seriously?
Fulton was MOTM today.
If Joe is fit on Saturday he doesn't start in place of Grimes or Fulton, but may be a third midfielder?

Joe will be used sparingly even if fully fit until after the World Cup, it probably was a prerequisite before he signed for us...
