• 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

Laird.

Noises.

Not impressed.


Nor me and no doubt Utd will pull him in January if we're not up there in top 6 or so.

I'll pass on the Laird myself.
 
Considering that we're threadbare in that position and with season looming it would be a decent signing. Knows the club, knows Martin, is a year older physically and mentally and probably wouldn't break the bank so funds could be spent elsewhere.

Yes for me.

Ajax are supposedly keen on him in a permanent.

I wonder if someone like Tony Ralston at Celtic May be a good target. 23 and 4 caps for Scotland. Is a natural RWB but has never fully settled in the starting 11 at Celtic. 28 goal involvements in 131 appearances

Ralston is absolute quality and won't be leaving Celtic anytime soon.

Fair enough, I was going off appearances, where he played in 23 league games out of 38. Was he injured a lot last year?

No fenians please
 
I'm surprised so many are turning thier noses up at Laird. I thought he looked quality at the beginning of the season. His form dipped which is a worry but I think that was maybe because we kept using him as the only outlet.

Christie turned out to be a cut above him, but seems we are as low in quality in that position as we are, I would take Laird back in a heartbeat.
 
My problem isn't with Laird, he started well but fatigue did get to him when we hit November when he was our only attacking outlet.

My beef is with United and how they pulled the plug on his loan to send him elsewhere. I hope for that reason that we don't try to bring him back.
 
Marcel Lavinier could be a target. Spurs 21 year old 1 year left on his contract and rejected latest offer. Was in Chelsea’s youth system too

You think we’re getting someone that rejected a Totty contract?

Yes potentially. I don’t know what his reasons were for rejecting the contract, if financial then you’re assumption is right, if wanting to ensure playing time then we may have a shout
