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.

Looking at the crime sheet currently against RM as of the Luton game:
1. Persisting with wingback system when we don't have wingbacks
2. Playing Ntcham as left winger when he is a central midfielder
3. Taking out Naughton and leaving in Sorinola who has consistently disappointed
4. Taking off Joe who was the best player on the pitch
5. Piroe coming so deep and not staying near the top of the pitch can only be coaching instructions
6. Grinning and having a chuckle on the touchline when the side are 2-0 down
7. Bombing out every player we have who can play in attacking wide positions
8. Always willing to throw his players under the bus when something has gone wrong
9. No team gives up more chances per time in possession to the opponent than Swansea
10. Swansea have not won at home since April
11. No other team in the EFL or Premier League has given up more 2+ goal leads than RM since he took over
12. Persistence in playing players out of position
13. Poor tactical awareness in regards to substitutions and the timing of them
14. Persists in picking players who are out of form when others who make impressive cameos are ignored
Potter and Cooper have shown what they can do given the support; both struggled here with stronger teams than we have now. So I think Martin has a rough deal with these players. Yet at the same time his team’s so one dimensional and our defensive organisation has gone to pot, which is basic stuff.
We could change Martin and it may make a small difference (and wouldn’t lose any sleep if he goes, as his football is boring af) but change of owners is the priority imo. They’re going to kill us with their austerity and poor decisions.
For a player who was defensive, I really don't understand what Martin is coaching our defence to do.
Play out from the back, no matter what the situation, led to intense pressure, sometimes leading to goals. on us last year and is doing the same this season.
Is Martin really that stubborn that he can't see his tactics and poor substitutions are killing us?
Or won't his ego allow him to admit to himself he's getting it all wrong?
Shirley, if we can see it, the owners can.
And the coaching staff can.
What will it take for someone to say it in a way that Martin can?
