• 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

Sir Bobby Charlton

Bobby Charlton has been diagnosed with dementia. The fifth player from England's 1966 World Cup-winning team to have been diagnosed with the disease.

Nobby Stiles, Martin Peters, Jack Charlton and Ray Wilson, all members of the 1966 winning team, have died in the last couple of years after living with dementia.

Not great news but he is 83.

I met him once and thought he was an ignorant twat.


I've met him twice on 2 separate occasions, and he was abs brilliant with my young son.

In fact my son spent 2 whole days with him training and loved every minute, plus he sat down and chatted with us with no sign of being ignorant. The 2nd time he made a point of coming to me and shaking hands because he recognised me!!
