• 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 don't see what's wrong with a plain white shirt. Why it has to change every year is beyond me.
 
Well I just bought two full away kits for the grandsons.
Anyone over the age of 14 commenting on them needs a good kicking.

Fucking grow up.

Bit strong that wuss, it's one of the few topical swans things we can discuss.
 
The new away kit looks like someone dropped their star bake in the Bake Off Tent 😁

Black shorts are wrong.

The away kit hurts my eyes.

But I’m not going to buy either so whatever.

Agree about the shorts.

And far too much fussy stuff on the home kit. Plain white looks great if it is just plain white with a minimum amount of clutter.

Not that I'll be wearing it either.
 
Home kit should be all white and nothing else. Liked the all black kit as an away kit, though haven't worn a replica top for over 30 years.

Joma had a difficult act to follow after Adidas as the latter are a fashionable brand and have a big following. personally, I though Adidas went very stale by the end of their contract, the tops reminded me of templates loads of other teams were using and I was glad for a change. Joma have previously taken some stick on the quality of their kits, I haven't bought one and can’t speak from personal experience, but they looked decent. I quite like this yard home top and the new sponsor is a refreshing change.
The away top is left field and the colours are a big surprise, initial thoughts aren’t positive and for some reason it reminds me of an old Liverpool it.

I agree 100% about Adidas running out of ideas and other teams had away kits in exactly the same template as the yellow & purple one we had (see Phil Sumbler's avatar) but in different colours, think Southampton's might have been one of them so no individuality there.[Edit - it was Swindon's home shirt, just checked]. I'm not a brand whore so don't care who makes them tbh but I know youngsters do and would rather wear a crap looking Adidas shirt than a nice looking Joma one although some will wear anything with a Swans logo on. I don't have a problem with the quality of the Joma shirts at all and find it more than satisfactory but I do quite like some of the Joma detailing that Adidas simply didn't bother with. And before anyone mentions age and football shirts again, yes, I'm 68 and have bought a few replica Swans shirts but I wear them to play football more than to watch football despite my GP frequently telling me I should have stopped at least a decade ago. :lol: :lol: :lol:
