• 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 was in Neath earlier and about 15 blokes came out of a pub together to go to the Gnoll for James Hooks testimonial virtually all dressed the same in blazers,faded jeans & brown shoes.
How did that uniform become a thing then?

Serious question.

Nothing wrong with brown shoes with jeans? Looks better than wearing black shoes/boots imo.

Yeah but why do they all dress the same mun?

From the Valleys most probably.

You get discount for buying in bulk innit.👍 Every little helps.😉
 
It's a testimonial, they've probably all arranged to dress the same in some "statement".
Very much like oldd guys who have long hair and wear clobber from the 70's bands they follow......
 
As we’re all liberal and tolerant folk on here why does anyone give a shit what anyone else wears?

I don’t I’m just asking why thousands of grown men dress the same to go to the rugger.

You must care otherwise you wouldn’t ask.

I’m genuinely interested in how it became a thing.

Same as anything Shirley.

Rock fans (moshers).
Football casuals.
Ravers.
Goths.
Punks.
Hunting set.

Nothing unusual.
