• 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 have never understood why a player who is fouled and injured, thus needing a physio on the pitch, has to go off to the touch line and wait for play to resume before being allowed back on. This is no advantage at all to the team whose player was fouled.
 
I'd like to see a zero tolerance on players swearing at officials. There is no need for it whatsoever.

They need to start dishing out red cards when players get in an official’s face swearing at them. It would soon stop.
 
If a decision (throw, offside, foul, etc) goes against a player it should be a bookable offence to continue to hold onto the ball, wasting like 5-10 seconds if you are winning or for teammates to get back into a position

Connor wouldn't manage 45 minutes.

The rule is there to stop players slowing down a game and/or the opposition by feigning injury. They do not come back on until given permission by the ref.
When I was reffing at local level in Hereford and a player pulled that stunt on me, I'd leave him stewing on the touchline for 30 seconds or a minute to give him the message that he couldn't extract the urine from me without paying a price.
