• 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

What is our major problem then?

Among other changes we moved Naughton who was sweeping up nicely to a position that suits him less and doesn’t allow him to continue to sweep up nicely.

If it ain’t broke…

I'm speechless!!!!!!

The personnel have changed ( Darling, Wood) but still unable to hold on to what should be winning leads. Happened twice last season and already twice this season. When teams throw everything at us we fold like a pack of cards . We have got no mental strength to see out matches.

Everything, we are a lucky side
 
The owners don't care enough about pouring in real investment.

Martin is a League One manager learning is trade on the job.

The players are bad to average.

Our fans simply don't make enough noise about the owners and how they run the club.

We're a mediocre Championship side now and will flirt with relegation rather than challenge the Top 6.

Depressing times. Get used to it until the owners sell up - which isn't happening anytime soon.
 
We have a manager, who played as a defensive unit. So he should understand what a defender has to do.
Yet he buys/ brings in supposed defenders who can't defend. Drops Cabango for wood. Sorinola looks like a rabbit in the headlamp when someone is running at him hard. "Cut inside" from the left Sinclair would have had a field day against him
Both Wood and Sorinola are constantly on the wrong side of an attacker.
Naughts is too slow to cover the rest when they screw up.
Same v Blackburn. Poor defensive work
Blackpool had a few good chances as well. Once or twice in a game, fair enough but every 15 or 20 minutes?
If Fulton is on, then Grimes needs to be off, as others have said. We all know what was going to happen, when the subs were made. we went more and more out of the game.
2-1, a couple of minutes max to hold on. I'm glad it wasn't longer otherwise we'd have lost that.

And to blame Pato for the 2nd goal?
That's just unbelievable

Just what is being taught in training?
What is being coached by the coaches?
Certainly isn't how to defend or carry out game management
Or quick passing to players standing well clear of the opposition

No hedge fund would ever gift money to the club without very thick strings attached. Either the sell-outs were particularly thick or they simply decided to line their pockets. I know what I think.
