• 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

Old Firm games are usually an entertaining watch anyway just because of the atmosphere.

Brendan is under a bit of pressure but he is at least a capable manager. Russy is a bullshitting fraud. An early goal for Celtic may result in the unusual sight of an armed police ring around the Rangers technical area.

We know exactly how this goes…he’ll somehow give Celtic a thumping, get more time, have another awful 5 games, rinse and repeat.
 
I’ve said it many times before, even when he was with us, but he will continue to play this suicide football supported by PowerPoint stats until a big club thinks ‘ooo that’ll work with our expensive team’. You could argue it’s already happened with Southampton and maybe Rangers, but it wouldn’t have surprised me if he’d spawned his way to a Villa or someone like that. Thankfully, for football, it looks as if he’s already hit his ceiling.

At some point it's got to end, once it's become clear that he ruins every defense he manages and that he's just a self promoter. But as you said I fear he'll have at least one more high profile club to ruin in the UK....and after that there is always America. He could do well (for himself at least) over there regardless of results, as yank media doesn't care how inept or insane you are as long as you got the pearly whites and good hair.

I can see it now…he takes a break for a bit, ends up getting the Man City assistant manager job, Pep leaves halfway through a season…Russy takes charge in the interim, his tactics work with a £1 billion squad, gets offered the job full time…wins back-to-back PL titles…his head absolutely explodes (“I said it all along lads, you’ve got to trust the process”), the few people who still support him here will come out with the ‘I told you so’ posts…

You watch.

I hope he keeps getting gigs. He’s extraordinarily entertaining as long as he’s nowhere near your club.
 
Rangers fan “he’d depress a Valium and make an onion greet’ 🤣🤣🤣
