• 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

Absolutely, you’re spot on. Too many people blinded by their hate for RM.

Well if you guys are happy with the style and set up of how he has us playing then good luck to you. It's not just based off today's performance is it. He's the one that coaches the players so he's not blameless.

That’s the problem isn’t it “ missed a few easy chances “ piss poor from Benda, c’mon let’s call it as it is not go on some managerial witch hunt.

Managerial witch hunt? This isnt based on 45 minutes we are duller to watch than paint drying and spend half our time walking around our own half with no substance to the play at all and allowing the opposition time to regroup,catch their breath and in some cases have a cup of tea and a piece of cake.

The manager is a fraud taking us nowhere - MARTIN OUT

Didn’t say I was happy with it, but Martin gets the blame every time and bar 1 or 2 players, the rest of the team seems exempt from blame when we could just as easily been 2-0 up at half time if Piroe and Cooper scored 2 chances 1 vs 1 against the keeper from 8 yards out and had Benda not punched the ball like a fanny straight to Andy Carroll!
 
This is a manager who had a career as a professional defender yet look at our defence, gone backwards under him with players he's brought in.

Yeah the players need to do better there's no doubt but isn't that the managers job to get the players playing better?

20 minutes in, 83% possession,

NO touch in opposition box

NO shots at goal

Who should we blame ?
 
It’s about time people focused on some of the players,Fulton is bang average,Allen should never have been signed and last years top scorer is playing like a parks player.

Indeed, all of this is true and hard to argue with.

And yet the manager keeps picking them all despite havig fallen out with at least two of them in his time here

Average players under an average manager

MARTIN OUT

About time! I said when we signed Allen it was a mistake only to be shot down
