• We have today (22nd April) confirmed the closure of JackArmy.net on 31st May. Our reasons are varied but after a twenty-five year stint at the heart of the online Swansea City community, the time is right for us to bow out.

We’ll just have to manage him properly but got a lot to offer.
A big dose of realism and patience is needed. He missed 211 days of last season with a nasty injury that can often see off careers. Given he was known for his pace, a knackered Achilles is particularly bad.

Let’s hope he can get up to speed, but it’s far from guaranteed (which is why he was sent here rather than be a risk for Burnley).

Yep, on the face of it it’s fantastic but there’s a big chance we don’t see him much. If all goes well, we could see him make a similar amount of appearances as he did for Burnley in their promotion season, think he played 30 odd times and started 10 or maybe 15.
 
We can go toe to toe with any team in the league in a one off game. Time to continue our home fortress and pick off teams on the road .

Wrexham fixture will be interesting to say the least
 
Absolutely fantastic end to our dealings this window. Not many variables I'd have changed, if any.

This is the most optimistic I've been about our prospects in many years, and this certainly feels like a new dawn for us. But I am a realist, and it could legitimately take these lads weeks to bed in, and start playing to Sheehan's tune. We need to give them a bit of grace over the next couple of months to get there, but I'm confident they will. This could well mean that we don't get the final table that we all want, but enjoyable football would be a huge coup for us this year.

That said, let's hope they all find their gear early, and who knows!
 
Squad Overhaul - Yes
17 players out
12 players in
Think the score is Swansea 12-12 Wrexham
Except they've spent a ton and lumped themselves with really high wages contracts and aged players with no value at end of their contracts

Also we carry over 12 players who have played in this league last season so we're are building on a stronger foundation.
