107 Phil TuckerCome one - once in a lifetime event! Common sense is needed.
108 Phil DaviesI'm a Cardiff Business School alumni and Saturday exams are a daft idea, full stop. Let the students vote to keep Saturday exams or change early evenings in the week (4pm-7pm or 5pm-8pm) as the University of Glamorgan did. You can imagine which way they voted.

116 Gareth NormanYou'd think they would have a heart? But clearly not, seeing as they have put an exam on a Saturday in the first place. Exams & education is important, but so is R&R, which in the UK traditionally occurs on a Saturday & Sunday. Let them sit the exam early. Schools do it for GCSE & A-Level It happened to me & as a teacher there times that students have to alter the official time when they sit an exam. No reason why these students could not sit it early & leave early, it is allowed to leave an exam early. Plus if no further student was allowed into the exam once these students have left, how can any cheating or collusion occur? Plus they are prepared to pay invigilators for the added time needed. To not allow this exam to be rearranged seems narrow minded, pig headed and does not meet the governments requirement that every student matters.

126 Gordon ChittendenBringing forward the time of these exams in exceptional circumstances would only be fair.
127 Steven O'DonovanC'mon, have a heart ! It'll not happen again for a long, long time !!!!!!
128 Geraint AubreyIts a shokcing farce that a simple exam cannot be re-arranged to accomodate one of the greates sporting events in welsh history. Best of luck to you both. Dai Vader!
129 BenDisgraceful, as a fellow Cardiff University Student, I can totally sympathise. At least Chemistry have managed to schedule my exams away from the special day!

131 Speedy BluePlease allow these true Cardiff City fans to take their exam early, after all it is the greatest day in Cardiff City Football Club's history and a once in a life time opportunity for them.

134 AnonymousHave a heart, even letting them start an hour earlier would not be too much to ask in the circumstances surely ?

145 Owain ThomasThis is a potential once in a lifetime event and the Universities are not making a good name for themselves, or giving their students a fair chance to complete their studies to the best of their abilities. It would take very little re-organization or extra effort to accommodate these changes on behalf of the Universities, but would show a huge degree of commitment and open-mindedness to their students.

149 Nigel HarrisHave a heart and let Nick and Jo just start their exams a little earlier. Academia and work is important but recognise this is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion but it is supposed to be fun and recognise a range of values too.
