• 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

Promoting slavery.

The best thing about that article from that toilet paper rag was that it led me to read the original article on the Guardian website.

It was an interesting read and unsurprisingly says nothing about 'wanting to cancel Man United and City'. Fucking Daily Heil.

It’s a good article. Here for anyone interested. https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/apr/19/abandon-ship-does-this-symbol-of-slavery-shame-manchester-and-its-football-clubs

I suppose they are making the case for changing the coat arms in fairness (last para is as explicit as it gets though). But it’s certainly not like the Daily Heil says, a lefty plot. The article literally has comments from a Labour Manchester MP, Graham Stringer, saying they should keep the ships and from their Labour Mayor saying it’s not his place to comment on the clubs.

The Heil is for idiots :lol:. Sorry if that sounds snobby, but anyone who believes and lets themself get wound up by the crap they peddle can only be an idiot.

Interesting piece though. I hadn’t realised the Guardian had been soul searching around their founders links to the slave trade either.
