Ah just read that bit, knowing DMU i wont be able to get one of them until the early bird offer runs out!

I go to DMU as well :thumbup: do you think by showing them confirmation letter from last August is useful.

Not if it only confirms your attendance to university this academic year. You'll need one to prove you are going to be a student next academic year also.

Well my NUS DMU student card expires in 2013 so will that be okay as confirmation as well as the letter?

Not sure, depends on how strict the ticket office are going to be. For example, you'd still have your student card if you'd dropped out of uni, and I know that my sister's university processed hers wrong so she had 2 extra years as a 'student'. I'd say you're better off getting a recent letter. It won't be difficult, the university will have a template letter already I would imagine, I know mine does anyway.

Student prices are outrageous.

If only I was a mature student.....

.... oh wait blush.png

At that price I can even afford to miss the odd game if I have to.

Guess who'll be at The University of Glos admin office on Monday!!

I went into the ticket office just now (live 5 minutes away) and the woman said that an NUS/University card should be fine to prove you're a student... I am still going to try and sort some letters out though.

I'm not an ST holder but think the prices are fair. We want success and we all want the top name players to come in. I'd rather our club be funded by our income rather than by the owners. Look at Chelsea, haven't made a profit in years and won't do for many years either. They've had success, but when Abromovich walks away they could be in real trouble. Then take Arsenal, a club funded basically by their income. Have enjoyed a decent amount of success and have a great squad and manager. I'd rather be like them than Chelsea.

I was going to post something sarcastic about having the luxury of chosing to be like Chelsea or Arsenal, 2 of the most successful teams in England in recent years...

...then I thought about it a bit more, theirs could be a model we are going to try and emulate, Sven is already focussing on yoof, he is getting our youth team players more loans and experience than they did under Pearson, we already have one of the most successful academey teams, we now need to turn that into producing first team players, playing football the Sven way.

A few other things that have been introduced with Sven and the Thais, bringing in a few players for the future such as Uchechi, maybe Norales (I'm not to sure about him though) bringing in players from Indonesia wasn't it to train at our centre of excellence, with Sven's contacts in the game similar if not greater than Wenger's then we could get a good scouting network set up, especially in the far east, bring in good young talent early and train them to play the Sven way, sell them on for a big profit.

This is a long way away though and we are just starting but they have certainly been making some interesting moves.

The downside of the Arsenal model is I think that their ticket prices are the highest in the country, and they produce very few local talents, Wilshire is their only true local boy, (I think).

Anyone know how much a under 18 season ticket will be AFTER the earlybird deadline?

I would imagine it will depend on what League we're indunno.gif

Loving the student prices ...

But does any one know if I could pass my student season ticket onto my grandad ( obviously a OAP,) because I wont be able to make every game. One of the benefits of being in Ireland :rolleyes:
