• 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

Massive week ahead

We need to win both games and on paper there is no reason why we can't win both games.

Having lost away to Norwich, I was disappointed we could only draw at home to Bournemouth, considering the position we find ourselves in in the table we need to be going for automatic promotion and not just the playoffs, if two teams in the league finish above us then fine but we should definitely be looking to beat Reading and Watford at home.
 
Reading are about 3-1 against and Watford are about 2-1 against in the upcoming games against the Swan's.
 
That is a good series of home games to take into 2021.

None of them will fancy the trip west.

I would say ten points from the four games.

Need to get up there with Norwich who will waiver at some point, hopefully starting with QPR.....

A Frank Bough finish and we go up this year

If we want to really be considered as automatic promotion contenders, 4 points has to be the aim. Wouldn’t be disappointed with 3, but I think we have to at least draw with Watford to show that we can mix it with that calibre of team.

Well, I thought that Reading would be the 3 points to add to that tally of 4, if anything, let's see how we do against Watford. Funny old game.

40 points from 22 games is terrific. At this stage, the table hardly matters. This is all about a building a platform for when the real business begins. I'd happily take 41 from 23 at halfway, having played everyone.
 
4 points, could easily have been 6. We really have to be considered contenders for automatic promotion.

I think we've grown up this week. Different team to August/September.
 
All credit to the coaching team. Defence is solid and set pieces are well defended. That protects Woodman who can do what he’s good at - shot stopping like a handball goalkeeper. His distribution is good too (one exception today). Fulton has turned into a real enforcer and Grimes plays some lovely passes alongside. Lowe - well what can you say. My only criticism as a couch potato pundit is that as we’re getting better as a unit - the old problem of where Ayew fits in is re-emerging. He needs to trust in the quality of the players he’s got around him and stop trying to do it all himself. Play the pass.
 
42% of voters in this poll are very astute 🤣

Good post LL, ayew has got to realise sometime that he cannot do it all by himself.
