• 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

Indeed.

I'm sure the Manchester coppers who got him put in jail when they almost certainly knew he was innocent will be held to account...

That's an incredible statement to make imo, I'm not saying that will not be the case but after what happens time after time I'm amazed that somebody can be so sure, Birmingham six, Cardiff three, Daniel Morgan, Hillsborough etc etc.

Morning Trampie.

I didn't feel a smilie was needed to indicate sarcasm in this case.
 
Will also get a reduction from his compentation to pay for the cell rent and food whilst imprisoned too. Good old British justice.

They'll deduct about £125k won't they, and any compo won't be decided on and paid to him for several years.

Any released prisoner who was guilty doesn't pay anything so I'm not quite sure of the logic here.
 
On the plus side, that’s 17 extended family Christmases he’s luckily avoided :lol:


Heard him on the radio earlier and he’s stupidly calm about it all. I’m not sure I would be.
