• 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

Steve Cooper admitted his Swansea City had turned in a disappointing performance as they were beaten 2-1 at Middlesbrough.

A Duncan Watmore brace – one via a deflection, the other at the end of a counter-attack – ensured the home side took the three points at the Riverside Stadium.

Yan Dhanda had pulled a goal back for the Swans with a deflected effort of his own, and the Swans had a good spell of pressure as they pushed for an equaliser, but it was not to be.

And the Swansea head coach gave an honest assessment of the display on Teesside.

“It was disappointing, from the start really I did not think we were ourselves,” said Cooper.

“In the end we did not manage to improve and we gave away two really poor goals.

“We probably did not create enough either, so there aren’t many positives to take out of the game.

“I am disappointed, the players are disappointed and they know we have dropped our standards tonight.

“If you don’t play anywhere near your level you are going to get punished.

“It was self-inflicted and we cannot blame anyone other than ourselves tonight.

“We were well short.”
 
Can's really argue with Cooper's post match comments on this one. Need to put it behind us and make sure that we don't repeat the same mistakes on Saturday

26 points from 15 games is a decent return. However 17 goals in those games is a poor return. We ain't gonna pick up many wins if we concede a goal in any future games if we don't start creating and finishing more chances.

Much of our low scoring rate is down to us defending 1 goal leads.

That's the wong way around. Us having to defend 1 goal leads is down to our low scoring rate.
