    Anyone else struggling with the stupid rule that means third years aren't entitled to the student discount 1st and 2nd years are? I can't justify £30 plus train fare from Nottingham at the minute. I don't understand it, never known any other club do it. Barely miss a home game so I'm a bit gutted about it.

    I doubt you'll be missing much. Its going to be cold wet and I suspect a neck brace could be in order.

    It will be unless he ever earns over a certain amount per annum, and even then the repayments would be structured in proportion to earning levels! So not too bad then.

    Don't worry mate, you are far from being the only one who is priced out. There will be another 1500+ in the same boat.
    I hope the club are pleased with themselves for this sensless catigory system.

    Same mate. I am a 24 year old 2nd year student but since i am not between the ages of 18-20, do not qualify for the student rate. Happy paying £1 a week for iplayer and listening to games until they change the age restrictions for students or will have to wait until i graduate. Gutted because i miss going to games on a Saturday afternoon.
