• We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

Been following the Swans since 1985, season ticket in all but four, whilst away in Uni, and I can honestly say for the first time I’m not too fussed on going to the games now. Some might question my loyalty, but I can hand on heart say, I’ve never felt like this, not even under the John Bond days of 85, the Alan Cork days or the petty era. I don’t know if it’s a mix of disinterested owners, the fact I’m getting old(49 this year), modern football in general or our manager, that’s having this negating effect.
It’s almost as if when you turn up, you know what you’re going to get served, and you know what the post match dissection will entail.
But low and behold, I’m feeling like this now, but come Weds v Blackpool I’ll more than likely be there!

You’re just getting old 😂. Sounds like me. Was going to go to Werder v Dortmund today but gave my ticket to my son‘s friend. Looking forward to Swans vs Boro in March mind.
 
Me and a few others stayed up with our mates who are Blades fans. We went back to Bracken Moor (Stocksbridge Park Steels stadium) as that’s one of their locals, and we talked for a good hour or so about the game, then the next thing I know, I’m buying my ticket for Wednesday night 😂 might I add, i had a nice win on the bets, so that made it a little easier to decide whether to go on Wednesday or not 😂 we’ll all get pissed off and say we’re losing interest, but something will always take us back.
