• 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

Innit Glyn.
I've taken the Mickey out of a few who keep changing their minds, but in all fairness, I've played and watched cricket for over 40 years and not seen anything like this.
The only thing I'm certain of is that if Wood was fit from the start, don't think it 2-0.

Australia all out with a lead of around 250. England all out for sub 200. Hope I'm wrong, but I can't see England winning this unless their fielding and batting make a significant improvement.

Head and Marsh have made a good start to their innings, play is likely to be a delayed start and a day of disruption ahead, todays play be abandoned by 4:30 - 5pm I reckon if not before, tomorrows weather doesn't look that clever from the forecast either.

Bonkers really isn't it? Entertaining but maybe giving credence to the womens format of mixing test, ODI and T20 matches in a series.
 
We need to knock the last six Aussies over for fewer than 100 more. Do that and England win in my humble opinion. Law of averages says that the top order is due some runs now.

Only thing they'll be knocking over today is the Aussies Tea Cups, by looks of it :lol:

Mae hi'n bwrw hen wragedd a ffyn most of the day
 
If they can squeeze an hour out of today in these conditions, with the wicket sweating, Broad and Woods could do some damage 💪
 
Disgraceful they had to see out that over!

Call it for the day now please ref.
