Hello! I'm currently in my third year at Uni and am centring my 'critical investigation' (dissertation effectively) on the play-off system in football in this country and American sports to ask whether they'd work in the Premier League. Being the old romantic that I am, I do still actually care about what the fans think, so I've drawn up a short survey (it should take between 10 and 15 minutes) on the topic of play-off football and I'd love it if you'd all give it a go. The link's here: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/3VT3JLM If you do also happen to support a rugby league, NFL, MLB, NBA team etc. then feel free to fill out the survey twice but I won't hold it against you if you don't! Thanks very much for your help!
They'd work in the sense that they'd be exciting and would generate insane revenue if, say, fourth place was put to a playoff between the 4th-7th teams. That doesn't mean they'd be a good thing.
