• 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

Missed out as I was going to do it, FFS :lol:

I already wasted a tenner on Roberts coming so might have dodged a bullet.
 
I read that Wilder still has a year of contract with Sheffield left, and therefore isn't desperate to rush back into management. And that he turned down fulham as he didn't want to move from the north.
 
:lol: Not being funny, Fulham's a nicer part of London, but a choice between living there or living in Swansea, in a straight shootout Swansea wins every time. Can't even park a car in Fulham and he'd have to earn ten times what he's earn here to make it worth it. :lol:
 
Troy Parrott is having a medical at Mk Dons now, 9th signing for Martin this window, safe to say this is 100% off Martin coming here?
 
More chance of having Russell Hobbs (he wouldn't need to pop into Rossi's) or Russell Brand here, or Chris Martin from Coldplay.

Think this one could be ongoing
 
This is quoted from the radio interview this morning:

-He continued: "We'll roll on, just keep going and making sure we are getting better and better all the time. If something official ever happened, I'm pretty sure you'd know that really quickly. As far as I'm concerned, we're here, we're doing a job and a job I really enjoy."

"After that, I don't know how long the journey will last with us, hopefully, as I've said all along, I plan to be here for a long time, but in football you never know."

He added: "But at this minute in time, I'm happy and with a group of people I really enjoy doing it with."

Reports have largely focused on reported interviews held with Swansea, and Martin having reportedly rejected the club's advances. But it appears as if no approach has been forthcoming.

When finally asked whether or not an approach had been made, Martin responded candidly: "I think the club would've told you. No one's told me there has been."-

An MKDons supporter could read that as fitting the narrative that he is committed to their cause. Alternatively, as Swans fans we could read that as he is keeping his options very much open with a few hedging bets phrases such as "but in football you never know." If I was being wildly optimistic I would read it as he has maybe had talks of a fashion but no formal approach or offer has been made for his services, I certainly read the interview as at least not ruling out staying or going.

Definitely sounds like he’d be interested provided we made an approach, maybe we haven’t then? But I suppose he isn’t going to admit that is he.
