• 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

I went to Peterborough in January 2000, just after the Millennium Celebrations and the World not ending. I was living in London at the time. I got the 10am train to Peterborough, in those days I thought Peterborough was more northern than it actually is. I was bemused when we pulled into Peterborough at 10.50am.

I was so much earlier then I expected to be there so I proceeded to have a look round the Cathedral and get some breakfast in a Wetherspoons. I wandered down to the ground, where the away pub was the away pub by day and a gay bar by night. My mate Dean had come up with his Dad from Swansea and he said to be ‘Tim, there are no Cubicles in the toilet?’ and I replied ‘might be because it is a gay bar?’ ‘He hadn’t any clue!’ He said ‘Fuck it I’m using the ladies!’

Anyway we were losing 2-0 at halftime, but we ended up winning 3-2 and it was nice to just have a 50 minute ride back to London with no stops. 🥳

I remember it well.. I had a party in St Neots then staggered to London Road.. I remember Freestone having a blinder and our terrace going mad when the 3rd goal went in.
 
I sincerely hope we don't revert to a back 4 with Eom and Ronald offering very little out wide and no Widdel .

But you can see it coming..
Everything that was good from first half against Man City will be binned and we will revert back. I'm trying to be positive 😂😂😂.

I see Eom and Ronald Starting with Cabango, and No Casey in lineup. Widell won't start either.

To some respect I understand as it's quick turnaround of games, so rotation and all. But ideal world would of been nice to see something different.

I still think we are good for a win today, 2-1 Swans.

As much as it’s a sad reason of absence - I think we could benefit from Stamenic not being in the side today. Franco & Galbraith in the deeper 6 roles with room for Widell or Cullen further forward would mix things up a bit
