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 was a toddler at the time, but have read and watched plenty about it since. One of the iconic World Cup performances, especially at a time when we didn't know all about players from other countries. To have just come back from a 2-year ban for match-fixing (which he always denied) and then to not score a goal in the first group stage, to scoring 6 goals in the quarter-final, semi-final and final is incredible.
1990 is the year for my earliest football memories. Those incredible FA Cup semi-finals between Liverpool and Crystal Palace, then Man United and Oldham, followed by a brilliant final between Man United and Crystal Palace. Then the World Cup in Italy. I was already a football fan, but that year really cemented the obsession. I'll probably feel similarly to Phil when Toto Schillaci dies.
