• 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

Just took a few minutes out to relisten to "Little Blonde Plaits". It was my favourite by a distance and once helped me through a tricky summer.

Mrs J2J is gutted, I came home earlier from work, she had tears in her eyes, she loved Chris Rea. Little blonde plaits is one of her favourite tunes. He was a seriously underated artist.
RIP Chris Rea
 
Strange one Chris Rea, a weird combination of coming across as a thoroughly decent and talented bloke yet somehow making some terrible music at the same time.

RIP
 
I detest his Driving Home song, it used to haunt / upset me on my drive home from work in Newport every bastard Christmas. Still hate hearing it today.
 
Sky Sports just ended their coverage with DHFC over the credits. Class.
 
RIP Chris. I had a few of his albums when they first came out, some very decent stuff there.
It seems he had health issues for quite a while. A lot of musicians passing recently, around my age too. 😳
