• 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

Tony Jenkins - Diff'rent Records - RIP

It's only a few weeks since Tony's name came up on here with some discussions around the "old days" but was sent this last evening to say that Tony has sadly passed away this month after a short notice.

A hugely passionate Swans fan, I spent many an hour discussing football over a few beers with Tony as he was a regular traveller with the MAGS and also pulled together a great fanzine around the turn of the century called Jack Plug.

Thoughts with all his friends and family

RIP Tony.

Wasn't at one point he was linked with buying the club or have I got him confused with someone else?

Aside from that, RIP in Tony YJB

Memories become a little hazy over time but I think Tony knew/was friends with Bo Ekland who was linked with buying the club - I am fairly certain that it was Tony who put me in touch with him for the interviews that appeared on here

I used to speak to Tony at most games home and away.
I remember him bringing 45’s to the Vetch on match days for the DJ to play.
Very sad news.
