• 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

Let's be honest, whenever we get new players, you tube etc matters diddly squat.... until we actually see them play in the flesh, the past means nothing. We've had too many disappointments over the years to think otherwise. Don't get me wrong, I'll be delighted if this guy makes us better. Hope and time hand in hand.
Let's wait and see eh! Personally I hope he rips it up. Gotta be positive.👍
 
He may take a while to get used to the intensity and physicality of the Championship.
Hopefully the remainder of this season will see him adapting so he can flourish from the beginning of next season.
 
Lets hope our ever patient fan base gives him time to aclimatise to the Championship. It maybe next season we start seeing the best out of him.

If he doesn't hit the floor running though, we know we have certain "fans" who will forever find every reason to push the hate on him.
 
I always used to trawl the chasmic database on the early Champ Manager/FM games . Even though the majority teams had pages of greyed out players you couldn't buy, Scandanavia was always different.( Similar to someof the non league teams. )There were players available and sometimes they were good. Some times really good. (20s in critical stats) I see life is imitating (electronic) art once more.

Haters love to hate.

We could sign Leo Messi and some would find issue with it. It’s like some are constantly looking for ways to have a pop at our ownership / recruitment team. Often it will be accompanied by a mealy mouthed “Hope I’m wrong” comment.

We’re all up for some constructive criticism, but some are determined to find something, anything.

We see you.
 
We can now have three horses on our "Whos the better Scandanavian signing" Carousel Horse Racing Game..

There will be a lot of Captain Hindsights on this board if he doesn't.
 
I really hope people aren’t expecting too much imminently.

He hasn’t played for almost 3 months, has never played championship football before. It will take him at least 2 months to get him up to speed with the championship & fitness levels
If Widell is fit on Sunday I expect him to start and Walta to be on the bench to get 20-30 mins
 
Yes the statements yesterday seemed to make it clear that he’s in his pre season now. Don’t expect many full 90’s from him this season.

Word for word spot on.
 
Good thing is they're running out of things to have a pop about. The football is improving, the signings we're making are improving and the way we're operating off the pitch is improving.

Still have one or two looking for things or trying to twist things for some bizarre reasons, some personal some due to that's how they live their lives.

Absolutely. It's now fun to watch the Swans. Not been that way since Potter. Refused to go to another game under Martin after enduring the most spineless showing ever at Stoke. Most things seem to be improving on and off the field. Not every signing comes off-but that's true for every team and every manager. I hope Idah is banging them in next season and Inoussa becomes a real threat. May not happen, but I'm not going to slate them on the limited evidence we have seen as yet.
