Ah but remember, safe standing isn't needed when you can just stand in your seat...

Completely agree. If you do a reasonable number of aways you can rack up the points quite quickly. Seemed like the ID thing worked well on saturday also. Considerably less dickheadish behaviour from our fans compared to last season and a lot more familiar faces too.
I like Ronald's videos, they are really good and the home game videos work as great adverts for our city. We all know he is supporting his countrymen but he does it in an entertaining way. Ronald is definitely my go to Albion match day vlog. If you get the points you qualify for a ticket, it's as simple as that.
Harsh, Luke is a young lad making vlogs and is getting ready good numbers of views, good luck to him I say. Ronald also makes fantastic Vlogs.

I think Luke's vlogs are improving and I enjoy them also.
Agreed. Except for the music. But then I'm hardly his core demographic.
Have to say his blog this weekend was excellent at demonstrating just what a dreadful view you get at Selhurst. They've got some cheek charging money for that.

How unnecessarily unkind.

Well the ticket has his name on it so he clearly was able to buy a ticket which suggests he has enough points or like someone said one of the players gave him a comp.
I'm all for these new followers from other countries. Loving how many Japanese supporters we have since Mitoma signed for instance. They might not stick around, some might, but while they are here and following the Albion then all for it!

I found the game (certainly pre game) lacking the edge of the last few years.
I guess the the name on tickets thingy has stopped the passing on of tickets that used to happen to some of our fans who might only go to this one.
Not saying it's a bad thing but it seemed to be a very different demographic to a few years ago.

That Blog has convinced me that I have been right in avoiding Palace away. Everything about it, from the twattish fans at the start to the 'facilities' and the (lack of) view. Added to tbe almost inevitable disaapointment of the result and the fact that I am not that bothered by the rivalry. All.makes me think that I will stick to away games in places that I actually want to go to, and where the % of idiots around me is likely to be at a bearably low level.
So thank you Ronald for that. I have the points to go, but will continue to leave a place for others.

I have absolutely no interest in his vlogs so someone may have to help here, but I am very surprised he has enough points for Palace away. Something doesn’t add up there.

He is a season ticket holder and has been to most if not all of the games in league and cup this season away from home.
In this case, he posted on social media asking for a spare ticket, probably due to not meeting the points threshold when they went on sale by the club.
Hope this helps.

I still don’t think that would add up points wise though!
Asking for a spare ticket would surely get you nowhere as they can’t be passed on?
He’s done a hell of a job staying under the radar if he wasn’t entitled to that ticket.

Well he got in somehow with a ticket, as shown in the vlog. If it weren’t for this evidence, I would have assumed he swiftly scrambled over a wall and snuck into the ground under the cover of darkness, like an Ecuadorian Spider-Man.
Read the thread, this is discussed loads. In the video you can see his ticket and it has his name written on it so is a legit ticket.

The most curious thing..
I like Ronald.
Anyone who doesn't should be ashamed of themselves.

Ronald (Not Roland) has had to take to twitter to defend himself due to rubbish written in this thread..
Here is a guy raising our profile in South America who dedicates himself to going to all the games and is a ST holder.
As he says he is a football fan but obviously follows us due to our Ecuadorean contingent. No different to someone living in say Malmo going to watch them if they had a Brighton player on loan.
I really enjoy his vlogs and hope he carries on despite being called Roland Rat by certain individuals.
