• 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 see the local Wigan sports reporter saying that with the Latics sell on clause we probably made about 600k on the sale to Bournemouth :shock:

If that's true, then either Martin really didn't rate him, or he needed to be sold for new players to be signed.

£600k profit on a player who scored 14 goals last season and had 2 years left on his contract certainly doesn't sound good.

And 14 goals in a team not exactly busting a gut to get forward either...
 
Can anyone see him make a big impact at Bournemouth? I seriously can't see him holding down a first team berth. Not the best of moves for him.

No he's rubbish
 
You never know in football. He may do well for Bournemouth. For some reason he never discovered his form compared to the first half of last season.
 
3rd best player leaves to accompany best player and fourth best player.

Ayew
Grimes
Lowe
Roberts


Woodman was ok

Marc Guehi was above all

So 4th best player leaves to accompany best player, 2nd best player and 5th best player then? I’m losing count. As well as the will to live.
 
I don’t know why people are still so annoyed about the fee!? He was a player that Martin clearly didn’t want, so do we say to Martin “tough, go with him - no one is willing to pay what the fans think he’s worth” or do you take the only offer on the table which is enough money to cover his replacement? It’s a no brainer - get rid.
 
£1.5M rising to £2M for a player that scored 14 goals last season, and had 2 years remaining on his contract. Plus, Wigan will recevie a fee due to the sell on clause. How is that a good deal?

Did I say it was a good deal?! Sometimes the right deals are not always good deals, however we’ve (on the face of it) spent the money on an upgrade in terms of replacement.
Would you rather us have him still in the squad and no Obafemi? I know what I’d prefer.
