Ticket Prices

Afternoon guys,

I'm focusing my research project on ticket prices in English football and to see how commercialisation of English football affects supporters in attending live football matches.

May interest you that the Premier League (95%) has a higher attendance utilisation than Germany (90%).

Please could you take 5 minutes to complete this short survey. It's multiple choice so no brain power needed.

Considering the impact of ticket pricing strategies on fan engagement in English football clubs.

What better way to celebrate promotion than research.

I'm more than happy to respond to any questions about the survey or the project.

Congratulations on promotion.

Cheers in advance.

  • I would personally give my right kidney to follow the Blues. Watching Great doc on XTC on bbc 4

  • Slightly deterred from participating by your second paragraph @MSc. I might be more interested if I was able to make sense of it. What exactly is “a higher attendance utilisation “? And what in Germany are you comparing the Premier League with?
    Sorry.

  • The point he is making Micra is that while it is often stated that lower ticket prices in Germany attract high attendences than in England, the statistics appear to show that premier league grounds are on average 95% full for league games while bundesLiga grounds are only 90% full. No idea whether the statistic is true or whether it means very much.

  • Blimey, wish I had your interpretive skills.

    You can but dream!

  • I lost my attendance utilisation somewhere in Germany if someone finds it let me know.

  • " No idea whether the statistic is true or whether it means very much"

    You should get that on a t-shirt

  • It is a statistic that can be massively skewed by the size of ground, e.g Spurs last yr vs Spurs this year. Bigger attendances, lower utilisation.

    @eric_plant Nice one!

  • We’re a pretty decent bunch, generally speaking, on Gasroom 2 and, for all I know, some of us may have completed @MSc’ s questionnaire despite all the deviations ! I was poised to do so myself and had a quick scan of the form. I had only got to the third paragraph of the introduction when I encountered the word “commodification”. A heartsinking moment. A series of multiple choice questions follow. Unusually in my experience, those choices include “prefer not to say”.

    Then we come to a series of statements with which we are invited to strongly or slightly agree or disagree (or neither). I really dislike this aspect of survey questionnaires.

    For someone presumably working towards his/her MSc, the number of typos and the use of “less” for “fewer”, for example, was disappointing. Nonetheless, I’ve done my bit since writing the above and wish @MSc well in his/her endeavours.
