• 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

Gary Neville has just suggested to drop all 6 clubs out of the PL as punishment... ๐Ÿ˜€
I like the sound of that ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

The standout part of that is...

โ€œAs previously announced by FIFA and the six Confederations, the clubs concerned will be banned from playing in any other competition at domestic, European or world level, and their players could be denied the opportunity to represent their national teamsโ€
 
Who really cares. Kick them and their entitled lump of shit fans out. Plus all the Arabs, Yanks, Shysters and dickheads. Letโ€™s get our community assets back. Might take a while but would be a great start.

The stinking hypocrisy is amusing too. If UEFA and FIFA were allowed to run it and dip their beaks, theyโ€™d be all over it. The PL has been self interest from day one. If they could have done it, that would have been a protected closed shop ages ago. I hope it goes through and rips apart the whole structure. Iโ€™d take football as it was in the 70s and 80s in a heartbeat, wherever we end up.

As much as I agree the PL is a far better league with those six in it and if we are in it Iโ€™d like them to be too.
 
If they banned partaking players from playing for their country, the players would have to make the choice between being superstar multimillionaires or playing for the national team.

If they chose the super league then the national team and the supporters, plus the players would suffer.

Also, from their fansโ€™ point of view, theyโ€™d get to watch world class sides at their place every time. No more the likes of Burnley or Brighton to watch.

Wonโ€™t happen. Itโ€™s posturing.

I have a feeling you're right. But what do you think their motive is? More preferential treatment in the Champions League?
 
Let them go, this will be a disaster

6 English, 3 Spanish, 3 Italian

No German or French clubs

Whats the point of a super league without those teams?

More money. Which amounts to much the same thing, yes.
 
If they do the tv deals for the Premier League would plummet... as would the trickle down to lower league clubs.

It would do lots of EFL clubs out of business.

They get f**k all as it is, they'd be fine and the league would move on and be better for it.

Imagine if SKY f**ked off, BBC/ITV could pick up more games and dare we suggest we may even get some kind of dedicated all in streaming service for every game
