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.

I absolutely love that song.
People can argue black and blue about the guy but anyone that that doesn’t respect him as a musical genius and how much influence he/they have had on music needs a good fucking thrashing.

I can't talk about the Beatles dispassionately because they were such a massive influence on my young life that they feel like part of me. I had a number of Beatles trinkets (Beatles tray, Beatles plastic wig) and used to buy all their singles on Parlophone when they came out.
If their first film "A Hard Days Night" comes on the tele, I urge you to watch it, specially if you are a youngster. It's both a fascinating slice of British social history and a catalogue of their brilliant early music.

The official Beatles tray was made at the Metal Box in Neath.
They went on strike over the wig in the Metal Box once too.

Just like I said. British social history in spades.
