How the heck could she do midweek games and still get to uni the next morning flying in/out ?
Only me, my husband passed away but I try to be supportive! I pay for her season ticket and any aways I go to. She saved from her job and had money from her 21st. During her time abroad the studies in both Spain and Italy were quite flexible. I constantly worry as she drives to most to save money. Luton a few weeks ago - she had an exam in Durham on the Friday morning, drove down once it was done and then straight back to Durham after the game getting in at 3am.
Luckily she’s quite academic and works her socks off at uni and has been top of her year each time. She graduates in a few weeks so don’t know what will happen after that.

Tbh when I was abroad for 6 months for my PhD I didn't come home. Couldn't afford it so had sold my half St to a friend. I then missed the play offs v the lot down the road. Which was probably bot a bad thing as we lost.

From Durham is impressive too. I miss the odd home cup game as hard to get enough time off work these days.

Only saving grace of St Mary’s is that they still built it within the City Centre - the original plans were for it to be out by the airport which would have been an even greater disaster.
The Winston has sadly closed doors and is boarded up now Sad times.
