• 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

This Korean boy that’s meant to be signing. Who the fuck is over there scouting? Or has his agent been offering him around clubs (like what happened with Michu) or maybe Ki put a word in?

The Portuguese boy, made a bit of a name for himself as having top stats for a DM, so can understand him being on clubs radars.

And, if both these players turn out to be a bit rubbish, they’re obviously going to be Watson signings, and if they’re a bit good they’ll have been Lukey boy signings, yes?
Apparently he did recommend him to us.

My reading was that we approached Ki for a character reference about Eom. The korean and japanese leagues have a tradition of raising technically gifted players rather than the old school english long ball style of play. Not surprised we have looked into that market.

Where'd you read that?

Whoever scouted Michu needs to be given a permanent conract to do the same again and again

Michu was known to Laudrup

He wasn’t exactly an unknown he scored 16 goals in the Spanish top division the season before we signed him

It was an absolute steal getting him for £2mill.

His agent offered him around premier league clubs. It had nothing to do with Saint Michael.

Laudrup pushed for him with his knowledge of Spanish football.
Fergie complained about his scouts about not sounding him out to him at United.
 
If you want one then, go search for yourself.

Don't ask me for the Fergie quote aswell!

🙈
Well don’t make things up then.

I know Fergie said that, it was well publicised.

The player St Mickey was ‘pushing’ for was Aspas, he had a big pout over not getting him.
