• 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

Not sure what we were thinking selling him
 
He wasn't interested in being here even when he came on he wasn't arsed. He's gone forget about him.

Some would say he might as well have been pìssing in the wind than trying to impress Martin but yes, let's move on...
 
He was load of old shyt when he played for us. Just like Gyokores. Its horses for courses and he never fit here. Get over it.
 
I fancy one of our back 4 will give him a right shoeing in a couple o weeks.
 
Lad did nothing wrong, club messed him around and our managers didn't fancy him and weren't shy about letting everyone know it. Amazing what can happen when faith is shown in an obviously talented young player.

Tried to convert him into a wingback and some fans moan that he wasn't any good and didn't graft hard enough. Plymouth can't believe their luck with how it's all worked out for them.

In a similar vein, Joel Latibeaudiere has played more minutes so far this season than any other player in the top four divisions and Coventry fans couldn't be happier with him. Amazing what happens when you actually give a player trust in their preferred position instead of trying to convert a central defender into a winger.
 
Got messed about with us without doubt by more than one coach. But I can’t believe that anyone who actually saw him play for us think that he was worth persevering with. He has an eye for goal but the rest of his contribution is only for one person

I can't think of a time when he got a consistent run of games in his best position here, so forming conclusions based on that is iffy at best. You're not really going to see what he can do in a ten minute cameo stuck out on the wing are you?

Stephen Schumacher clearly has faith in him and is being rewarded for it.
 
Apparently, despite fact he never played he was useless, lazy, bad attitude, etc and a Derby supporter once told someone on here that he was a bad ‘un. Of something …..

Screamingly obvious at the time that his treatment here was horrendous.
 
He deserved better than this basket case of a club and he's got it at Plymouth, good luck to the lad, definitely got the talent.
 
Let's hope we managed to get a sell-on clause in there and he continues to impress, as that could be worth a few bob down the road.

We never once played him for any consistent length of time in a system that played to his strengths, combined with the way the board brought him back last January despite RM having zero wish to play him in what was an obvious ploy to try to cash in and it is no surprise that he wanted out and that at Plymouth with a system that suits him they are getting the best of him.

Could easily see him getting a 15-20 goal season this year.
 
We've got enough on our plate trying to get a tune out of the players on our books so I'm not going to knock a young lad trying to make his way in the game and scoring goals for fun.
Good luck the lad 👍
