• We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

We need someone with a better pedigree than manager of Mumbai City and a few games at Championship level.
Yep, just fast forward another 12 months and we will be in exactly the same position as we are now.
 
Didn't he want to start at the beginning of the next season and not join half way through the current one?
 
Pretty sure he was never that close to being appointed.
Nope he was that close.

He had even spent three days in a hotel watching every single one of our games from the previous season and the half of the season where we were looking to appoint him back to back, worked out every player he wanted to keep and who he wanted to move on and was ready to sign up to a three year contract.

The powers that be at the last minute decided to pull the plug on the three year deal and asked him to sign a 6 month contract to be reviewed in the summer. The rest as they say was history.

I'll have to take your word for that.
 
I sat in a traffic jam on the M4 for more than three hours today, hardly moved an inch. I thought about many things as I passed away the time, but none of them were even remotely close to the things that I have read on here tonight. I need to go for a lie down.
 
I thought Buckingham played up front for Fleetwood Mac.
