• 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

Whittaker or Cullen

Piroe looks a very decent striker. As we only play 1 up front let's get a decent second striker. With games coming thick and fast we cannot rely on Cullen and Whittaker as back up.

I am surprised Cullen has been given more chances and opportunities than Whittaker as I just cant see it at this level. He has shown nothing to warrant the opportunities given to him. If he looks the better option in training etc then so be it. But if that's the case, get a new striker in January.
Obafemi ?

Obafemi ?

Obafemi 32 appearances for Southampton with 4 goals.

Also seems injury prone.

I think at the level we are at, a more consistent striker must be out there. One of the biggest most supported leagues in the world.
 
We spent a lot of money on Obafemi. Whether that was because Martin didn't expect Piroe to be such a success or wanting to have a quality backup/different option, he's our backup striker for now when he's fit.

Cullen and Whittaker may as well both go on loan in January, with an immediate recall option if Piroe or Martins is hurt or suspended.
 
If you could combine the two players there might be a good enough player there but as they are its not good enough, can't fault cullens attitude though, whittiker has the natural ability but doesn't apply himself physically enough , they both need to improve

Players cannot be recalled outside of a transfer window.
