• 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

Could be read as saying ‘he has them on a life support system’ i.e. they owe him buckets, but as long as he doesn’t call it in …
 
If his assets are seized they don't include Chelsea FC is presumably the point of this.

How a charity can run a football club is another issue and one that the charity commission may have a view on.
 
Quelled surprise. Horrible club and horrible fans bankrolled with blood money for years. Hope they go bankrupt.

He has put £1.5 billion into Chelsea in a loan

Imagine being able to write off a loan of that size!

You don’t become a multi-billionaire in the former Soviet Union without doing some horrific things. It is Putin’s war but it’s too late for people like this to distance themselves from it.

This.
 
The Trustees are refusing to take on the role as they don't want to be associated with a pretty blatant attempt to protect his assets.

This'll get interesting, but I'm not expecting much moral leadership from the football authorities or our Govt...
