• 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

Swansea City appoint new chief operating officer

So we have an ex- Notts Co and ex- Bristol Rovers team overseeing our playing and financial future
 
DrP off here. Was head of recruitment last time I heard.
A poster/fan off here was our head of recruitment? You’re joking how can that happen? I’ve never noticed that username only a Dr Winston.

You definitely would have read his posts. Unless you blocked him early doors like a lot did.

The appointment of Ken Gude just sums things up. Owners thinking that they can operate a football club in the same way as a corporate enterprise or a political body. Now that the reality has dawned he gets moved away from Head of Strategy into a role which allows him to drive strategic objectives; what a load of ‘effin nonsense.
Another blood sucking leech moves to a different prey.

Not really his fault. If someone gives him a fat salary and the title of Chief of Staff, then so be it. I’m not sure there is room for a CoS at a football club, but our owners unfortunately thought different.
 
How these guys manage to move on to their next prey/club baffles me. It is like watching Sales Directors taking all a small company's profits and promising the world using regurgitated contacts from previous roles.
Lower league guys - come on Swansea City, please stop it.

It’s a different breed at boardroom level. Some characters possess a ruthless streak that would shock most normal folk.

I reckon we’re missing a Chief Sustainability Officer. Sort it out Coleman!

Innit. And our strategic direction has been so good 🤣. He’s meant to be a comms expert and our comms had been shit too. Utterly fkn pointless.

At least this appointment is someone with a bit of relevant experience. If it gets the likes of Coleman and Gude further away from the team, all the better.
