• 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

People Leaving The Game Early?

Before the final whistle
Why? 🤷🏼‍♂️
I noticed title chasing Arsenal had large sections of their supporters leaving the ground with 5 minutes of normal time on the clock whilst losing at home to West Ham.

Just when the team needs you, I'll fuck off early.

Never understood the mentality of those leaving early (unless circumstances insist). We've been 2-1 up against the likes of Man United and people have left before the final whistle.

Also I’m not sure why people need an “excuse”. Yesterday we were three up and cruising. The result wasn’t in any doubt. If people left a few minutes before the final whistle I’m not sure what’s wrong with that.

What about when we're 2-1 up against Arsenal and hanging on for dear life?

It would seem odd to leave early in that scenario. But each to their own. I’ve known a few people over the years with mobility issues who always leave early to avoid getting caught up in the rush to the exit.

That's what I find odd. If there's no real reason.

Like you said about yesterday, when the result is done and dusted, I get leaving the ground.
