POSTER PROFILE - P_Sumbler

Philleas Fogg Sumbler was born in Swansea back in the 1970s. An angry child he spent much of his early days bashing away at his mothers typewriter when things did not go his own way.

However, there was potential in the young Sumbler as was proved by his first toy - magnetic letters for the fridge. Indeed, had his parents realised the significance of these letters then maybe a career path would have been chosen. Instead though they chose to stifle his potential by pointing out to horrified relatives that indeed he did not know what he was doing and quickly rearranging the "Michael Howard Is Shit" on the fridge door to read "My name is Phil and I love you very much"

Philleas' involvement with Swansea City happened very much by accident. It was in school that he became involved. Malcolm Struel, then chairman of Swansea City visited to give the impressionable youngsters a talk on running a football club and what it involved. As Malcolm talked to the eight year olds a chord was struck in Philleas' head that set him thinking - a very rare event in his life. And the following day he picked up his notebook and pen and wrote a 2000 word article on where things were going wrong. This was all the more remarkable as his fellow class mates were more concerned with the cat sat on the mat. From then on in there was only one way that Philleas was heading and so, even though he never knew it then, the idea of Jackarmy.net was formed in his head.

However, world domination of Swansea City web sites is his ultimate aim and he still works towards that. On many evening you will find him sat at his PC screen frantically trying to hack into the servers of other sites to try and bring them down although once he did press the wrong button on his keyboard and Port Talbot was in darkness for 18 hours as a result.

That aside though Philleas is a troubled soul. Many hours spent chasing a small white ball around a large green field has led to him having three breakdowns and none of them of the car variety.

You will also never see him without his PC and he is waiting for the day that the NHS will allow him to have his PC implant paid for by public funding which will allow for constant updates of the site but as you will see above, he tries his best now with a PC in every room of the house.

Philleas firmly believes that he is a legend in his own house and constantly bores people calling at his house with statements like "I've written books you know" and "JackArmy.net had 12,438 page views in the last three minutes" although to my knowledge he is yet to pull the "do you know who I am" line in trying to get into full restaurants or clubs.

But that aside we love him really and if it wasn't for him maybe you wouldn't be reading this now. Too much time on his hands maybe but after all he is the boss!
