• 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

I'm sure they did their research on which acts/bands would be likely to come before they went ahead with ploughing money into it.

Right?

I don't think bands will be the main focus, and unless you like ABBA tribute shows you'll be disappointed. Esports is growing and is huge in quite a few places. It could be a very good venue for things like that as well as conventions like ComiCon. Give me those over second rate bands any day. :D

Could they do something like ComiCon? Not sure what the set up is like inside, but it’s not really an expo-type of place is it?

E-sports is a good shout though.

I haven't seen what it's going to be like inside was just something I thought of

Never understood that. We have roads and a train station.

Yeah but it’s usually pointless then coming past Cardiff when they’ve got better arenas/venues.

Ewe need to have a word with your buddies Cheap Trick to get a booking there

It does a bit look like a larger Newport Centre but the sides are kind of like the MotorPoint /CIA. I reckon with the seating out downstairs you'd get an extra 1000 people taking capacity to 4500 maybe.

Too big for Cardiff to play there then, and the roof is too low. 😉
