• 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

Bryn, did you park in the arena car park, if so what were the queues like after the gig. Thanks


I did pal, and it was only £2.

It took about 15-20 minutes to get out after we got back in the car.

There were long queues to pay at the machines, but some steward came over to us and said we could just pay by our cards on the way out, so everybody just piled back into the cars then. I just tapped my card against the sensor and out we went.
 
Other option is to park in Paxton Street. That was also only £2 to park and was a doddle to get out of.

When we went to see Alice Cooper and The Cult we parked in there and I was pleasantly surprised how easily we got out.

Thanks Bryn, would you recommend getting there early to secure a spot. No doubt the missus will be in 6 inch heels and she wont fancy a long walk in the pissin rain.🤭👍

To be fair seems ok from what's been said, I thought I would be a nightmare, what with it being only one entrance onto Oystermouth Road.👍

We got there about 7pm, and with the performance sold out and beginning at 8pm there were loads and loads of empty parking spaces left. You will then have plenty of time to avail yourself of the fantastic lavatory and bar arrangements...not..!!

So frustrating. It's this close to being a top quality venue in so many areas like location, ease of access, quality of sound even if not size. Surely someone, somewhere at the planning stage must have pondered whether 12 urinals was enough for 2000 people to use during a 20 minute interval.

Must be even worse for the ladies.
