Maybe Hibs should open this up to other groups, old age pensioners, schools and people who have lost their jobs. I don't think this idea should be exclusive to the Army. Thoughts?

I think it is only right that Army families get a bit more respect from society. A girl I work with is down in Selly Oak just now visiting her brother who lost both legs in Afghanistan last week. Maybe it's time we faced up to the reality of war, instead of kidding on it isn't happening.

On the subject of extending the scheme, I often feel students don't get enough help - especially those heading for worthwhile careers in nursing. Would it be too much to set aside a hospitality suite for student nurses?

Ok then, I'll settle for a seat and a pie, and a half price programme.

I am pretty sure the club has done various things over the years to support many different groups.
Ten out of ten to the club for taking this iniative.

My grandad used to get in free when he was a young man in uniform IIRC, could be an interesting way to get a few hundred extra bums on seats.
