    No idea, but it's written on the ST/ticket.

    We all know why you are asking

    What he wants to give his kid his season ticket

    What if it's a wee girls ticket you are trying to use ?, i once got a ticket from my nephew as they were giving tickets to paper boys in our area and he had a spare and i thought i was going to have to wear the shorts and school blazer but nobody said a word and we beat the yams that day so go for it.

    I'e got an ST myself, it's a spare one that I have. Just seeing how viable giving it to someone above 'student' age is

    Wondered the same myself. My 3 yr old season ticket holding daughter will not be at every game so there will be an empty seat. I'm presuming the people on the turnstIles would not know or care if from time to time that seat was filled by someone a bit older!?

    Well in my case hibs now have one more season ticket holder than they had and more cash than they would have had, minimal though it is. With the capacity we will have the seat will be empty many weeks. Having someone in it that wouldn't normally go will get hibs another punter buying food and drink and another body to support the team. So win win for the club and the budget.

    There is a difference between occasionally having a 'spare' seat occupied and buying a student season ticket to which you are not entitled merely because you are 'tight'. Isn't there?

    When me and my dad got moved to the south stand, they messed our new cards up. My dads card is a concession and mines is an adult, but we've never had any bother getting in with them.

    The student is meant to be the person using the ST not the person who bought it. Why is that so hard to understand?

    TBF... there's a difference between being "tight" and being "skint".

    I'd advice anybody who can't afford full prices for a season ticket to get in touch with someone with a student card and use their name.

    Who cares if some people cheat the system a little bit. I'd much rather see people in seats than no people in them at all.

    How is it cheating the club?

    Surely a half paid season ticket is better than no sale at all for the club?

    Like I said.... better to have somebody in a seat than nobody at all.
