• 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

We’re in talks according to The Athletic 2.5-3M.

Deal was agreed with Hull a few days back maybe he had a heads up Piroe would be leaving and we’d be in for him, hasn’t got a great record though has he.

It's not terrific it has to be said... another one of those players who seems to generate much excitement when his name is linked but no real substance to back up said excitement

Maybe we can get more out of him ?
 
When he played at the .com last season… he didn’t score but thought his all round game was exactly what we needed at the time.

Fast, strong, help the ball up well and brought others into the game… I think he’ll be a brilliant signing.

Yates and Ginnelly playing off him could be a serious threat
 
Tame scoring record and 25 now. Read somewhere he's on huge wages.

Could be one of those players that needs a permanent club after some loans to kick on but I'd look elsewhere.

People won’t get excited by a non goal scoring striker… but his all around game and how he brings others into the game will be what he’s brought in for.

I don’t think he’s Piroe’s replacement… That’s Yates - and I think Yates will do a damn fine job of it… Davis’ role will be to bring others into the game, stretch teams and grab the odd goal here and there himself.

Yesterday I said when we purchased Piroe we had bought a man with only 0.11 goal contributions per game at a senior level. Admittedly he was only 22 and had made just 34 senior appearances, however just because a player hasn't set the world on fire elsewhere doesn't mean he will be a bad player for us.

Also as you said his game is more about hold up play and bringing others into the game, both parts of the game that we are really struggling with at the moment. I agree that Yates and Ginnelly playing off him will be what we are really looking for here. If he is able to chip in with 5-10 goals over the course of the season then that would be seen as a successful purchase in my eyes and we end up with 15+ goal seasons from Yates and Ginnelly then even more so.
 
Seems he’s going to decide over the weekend wether he comes here or Hull.
