• 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

@Neath_Jack Was the delay you knew about because of Snoop Lion?
No, the opposite. It got brought forward because Snoop became available. It was planned the home and away would be released the same time.

And the design is a take on the old Evening Post jersey as I alluded to earlier in the thread.
 
The play on the retro design, it's a good call but they picked the wrong one for me.

Think it should have been more around the DP shirts from mid 80s into early 90s.

Be nice to see the away one like the black and red gulf oil from 1995.
 
There was speculation earlier in this thread that the checkered design on the neck and sleeves of the home kit may be a homage to Modric (as the Croatian flag and national team kits have that red and white checkered motif) and a hint that the away kit will go full checkered. SCFC normally launch both home and away kits at the same time, so maybe there's another big reveal coming. Or maybe they just did a soft launch with Snoop to get people excited and they'll still do the formal launch for both at the same time. Negotiations with Snoop could explain the delay in the kit launch (as opposed to just incompetence).
Not quite. The home shirt is clearly a nod to the Evening Post shirt.

I made reference to the fact it has / had checks on it as it could play into a Croatia-esque away shirt to link with Modric (given the club is all over its sleb linkups at present).

It was a bit tongue in cheek to be honest.

BTW - great to see the old Swan back on the travel stuff albeit it’s very weird commercially to be using different club badges for different things.

That badge will always be the best for me.

That badge is really nice on the travel wear, it's good that they are giving it a bit of air time and fully appreciated by many it seems.
 
(I refuse to call it a jersey)!
Ffs can’t you see the comedy in this? He even approximated a ‘New Jersey’ accent when speaking it!. Chill. It’s all just a laugh. We are taking the piss. Hope we’re able to do the same when we meet them on a match day too.

I suspect you’ve taken my point a little too seriously…
