• 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

I hope he's stable......

86 , I thought he'd passed away a few years ago.
 
After he was sent to prison they had a terrible time getting him in the cell.
They had to blindfold him,turn him around three times and take him in backwards.
 
The greatest flat jockey of them all. Absolute legend.
Hope he pulls through.
 
Who was the only 16 stone man to ever ride a derby winner?


Lester Piggotts cell mate.

Get well soon longfellow, proper genius.
 
Met and spoke to him at Cheltenham races bout 10 yr ago....couldn't understand a fckn word.
But a proper legend he was.
RIP Lester.

And there’s me thinking that all jockeys were in 3d.
