• 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

Just sat through the new Jimmy Saville documentary on Netflix, fckn appalling( not the program) And just yet more evidence of police/establishment cover up.
To think I wrote to him when I was 9, I was a good looking kid he'd have smashed the life outa me.
 
I am cringing at Steve Coogan playing him......he's bound to inadvertently make him look funny.

Too many didn't speak out against Saville.
He should have been shot the nonce.
 
My cousin, who was well-connected in the meeja, tipped me off about Savile decades ago. Mind you, she outed Cliff in the same conversation and that hasn't been proven.

Was that to "Jim will fix it"? I hope you didn't ask to meet Gary Glitter

Ha, not quite Glyn.
There is a funny clip on YouTube where there was a discussion on Savile, someone rung in saying he was a nice guy, and that Savile had tought him how to milk a cow blindfolded. The penny didn't drop for the presenter it was a wind up.
 
I met him around 1977/78 when he opened the South Wales Motor Show in Aberdare. He was wandering around in a red tracksuit with some entourage and said something to us when we walked towards him.
