Don't worry about my research at all, I have reasons for asking the questions I'm asking....I've done huge amounts of research already, and now I'm trying to find out more about the fans....Please if you're not going to contribute to my research, then don't bother replying, not helpful at all!!

1) 17

2) 0

3) 35 yrs

4) C

5) A

6) A/E

7) 30m/20m

 

In the real world if you walk into a meeting and people don't like your idea or think it hasn't been thought through you can't just say "don't bother replying". If people don't like it, they will tell you.

 

But anyhow, my answers are above. Good luck with it.

Most of the answers to this are "all of the above".

 

We didn't win the league because we 'only' had team spirit, or we 'only' got lucky with injuries or we 'only' got lucky with refereeing decisions or we 'only' had a couple of players worth having.

 

We won the league because we were ****ing excellent. End of.

I don't mind being involved in your research as an admin I don't want to risk having to deal with people the are being harassed.

 

My location is Glenfield.

My God you are from Glenfield, you are nearly human...

Is the Forge Inn still offering good Faire....

Though I knew it when it was a more simpler pub..The Griffin  (if I rememher rightly ).

Glenfield memories...being stupid and laying inbetween the rails playing chicken.

The tunnel a dare for would be heroes, and when after the trains  stopped running,

Hearing the haunting Train bell on the wind and seeing the train

Lights following the tracks on those early misty mornings and evening

dusk, when no more Wheels of a Train touched track ....

 

Add that to to the King Richard story, Lady Jane Gray still treading the Bradgate fields,

the meetings for de monfort and twists of the gunpowder plot.....

Its the...uncanny, the tails of the unexpected...that is why we won the PL title..

If the question is "How Leicester won the league" then knowing how far I live from the stadium is pretty irrelevant,

 

 

 

Nonsense Stripey !! ...  Leicester won the league cus I live about 9 miles away...   OK.

 

(If I'd have lived 10 miles away we would have finished as runners up.)

1) How many home games did you attend last season? 12

 

2) How many away games did you attend last season? 1

 

3) How long have you been a Foxes Fan? Since 2003

 

4) How far do you live from the King Power? B - >10miles<20miles

 

5) Why do you support the Foxes?

B – Parents/relatives/friends

My dad bought be a season ticket for the 2003-04 season and I have been hooked ever since.

 

6) What was the main reason Leicester won the league?

A – Style of Play

I don't think this was the main reason as our style has not changed this season but is less effective. I think the tactical failures of our opponents to nullify the fast and direct style we had played in our favour, or was as a result of Ranieri being able to adapt accordingly.

B – Purchase of players

N'Golo Kanté - I think this is point one as to the main reason we won the league.

C – Choice of manager

Ranieri made very good tactical choices and his substitutions turned potential losses into draws and draws into wins (case in point being Villa at home from 2-0 down)

D – Objective Intentions of the owner

N/a

E – Weakness of other teams in the league

When Leicester 'slipped up' other teams failed to take advantage, secondary reason that we won it

F – Little Rotation of Squad

Combined with very little injuries, which leads onto point G

G – Other (please specify)

High quality of sports science

 

7) What would you say the value of Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy are respectively?

To Leicester? Priceless

If you really want to know why how far you live matters, it's because im investigating how the strength of the local fanbase affects a teams financial power (y)

Financial power in the Premier League is affected very little by the "fanbase" I would say. Leicester's total gate receipts for the season are probably not much more than £10M - £12M, which is a drop in the ocean compared to TV revenue, Owner investment and other sponsorships.

Thanks for your opinion but I'm studying all factors, this survey is to specifically study fanbase

Posted

 

1) How many home games did you attend last season?

 

Every one

 

2) How many away games did you attend last season?

 

Every one

 

3) How long have you been a Foxes Fan?

 

All of my life

 

4) How far do you live from the King Power? 

 

A - <10miles

 

5) Why do you support the Foxes?

 

B – Parents/relatives/friends

 

D – Other (please specify)

 

I was born in the hospital 500 yards away and lived in Leicester all my life, you support your local team, right?

 

6) What was the main reason Leicester won the league?

 

A – Style of Play

 

C – Choice of manager

 

G – Other (please specify)

 

No one giving them the respect they deserved, not taking them seriously, "oh they'll fall away", "if they're still there with 5 games to go maybe they could win it."

 

7) What would you say the value of Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy are respectively?

 

Whatever someone is prepared to pay for them, you can't use other players values as a barometer as the world of buying football players is so ridiculous when it comes to agents, clauses, fees, player wages etc so who knows what they're worth.

Studying a fanbase (if you're a football fan) sounds about the best kind of assignment/work you can do, I'd definitely welcome that on my course...

Chill Jimmy I'm only on the wind up ...   good luck with your dissertation.   :)

 

To actually answer why LCFC won the title is a very very interesting question ...    I think Col covered it in another thread (apart from missing the power of the Monks)  ....     but d'you know what ....    as a lifelong fan I'm just fvckin glad it happened.   :scarf:
