I suppose this is both a question and statement.
Would it be possible for the club to reveal the rationale behind not having a student ticket?
I only ask because to me it seems mad, you've been trying to encourage kids to come to the Withdean for years... we're now above 18! Think how many uni students would love to have a season ticket for Falmer even if they can't go to all the games because of all the games we've seen at Withdean.
But whilst this year i'm paying roughly £130 if i remember correctly next year i'm paying £500 and that is my second year at uni... how unfair for a generation who have supported Brighton home and away (the number of students at away matches is staggering) and they generally create the most noise.
Also, considering the stadium is located right near a university which I believe caused some friction it seems like a bit of a PR gaff, in a location with numerous universities as well as the one next door! (I prosume also by having no student season tickets there won't be student tickets for standard games).
I'm just really dissappointed and think it shows no loyalty. I have had a season ticket at Withdean for 5/6 years and have been to many away matches and cup matches and supported them for a long time before that 5/6 years and now I am priced out of a Falmer season ticket ... something I helped campaigned for. The fact that for students many season tickets in the premiership are cheaper shows it's simply wrong.
