My Name is Will Pownall I am Masters student at the University of Surrey and a huge football fan. For my dissertation topic I have chosen to analyse the factors which affect match attendance in English professional football and their relation to fan loyalty. I chose this topic because the club I support - Aldershot Town FC have struggled with attendance figures over the past few seasons. I know Aldershot are not alone in this struggle and my research aims to find out why fans are not attending games. I am asking football fans up and down the country to take a maximum of 5 minutes of their time to fill in a short questionnaire. I will be sending the results of my research to football clubs in England so by doing this you will be helping English football clubs improve the match day experience for fans! Please follow the link below to complete the questionnaire. http://freeonlinesurveys.com/s.asp?sid=klrhx4gpio5toz5513510 Thank you.
Our attendances have remained the same for the last 15 years or so mate - try the Leeds and Charlton boards as their attendances have halved in the last 10 years
Their attendances actually increased quite significantly when Maggie Thatcher implemented care in the community....
Go to the Den and watch that pile of ****e and you'll know why attendances are down. Don't know if it had anything to do with it, but the Wallies attendances went down when the filth nicked all those responsible for the looting, rioting and down right vandalism a few years back. but they seem to get a full house when the big boys like leeds United , West Ham, Charlton etc call for their 3 points a combination of the massive away following big clubs attract and cup finals like lil'ol' Millwall fans call them enjoy
