• 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

The new owners want to turn them into a “global force”. Our bullshitters have been well outdone. “Next level “ sounds really wimpy in comparison.
 
"Global Force" is a bit much but it could be fun to watch. McElhenny is a smart bloke and Reynolds does have a gift for marketing. The gin company he invested in/did ads for just sold for $600m.

A £2m investment is nothing to these guys. It's basically a hobby that might one day turn a profit. They'll probably make a chunk of that back selling the documentary to Netflix.
 
Not sure if it's on this twitter feed, Russell Crowe is on it as he has Wrexham connections, but they're advertising Ifor Williams Trailers because they sponsor the shirts. Apparently it had over one million views in seven hours.

Given Wrexham's league position this is a lifeline for them and could make a massive difference to the club.

These two guys appear to have their feet on the ground and if Wrexham fans stay there as well and not demanding money left right and centre this could work out for them.

Would be great to have a 4th welsh team back in the football league, it's been too long in Wrexham's case
 
One thing that crossed my mind about the place up there. From memory it’s a big old place, and I wondered what sort of nick it’s in? Old grounds like that can be money pits.

Went to the Racecourse for the Wales v Trinidad & Tobago game a couple of years ago and it's in a pretty shocking state ... a money pit it certainly will be if these guys are serious about climbing the leagues.

But if they are successful at Wrexham, then maybe they'll want a portfolio of Welsh football clubs :D
 
It’s all about a fly on the wall documentary that they’ve pitched to Netflix or Amazon. The most interesting thing about all this is what’s going to happen when they get a new train set.
