Hi all, Plymouth Argyle fan in peace!

I am asking a few minutes of your time to complete my questionnaire for my masters dissertation, around the subject of lack of consistent success for teams in the south west region of the country at the top level.

A participant information sheet and consent form are attached within the link. Due to University regulations ethics is a big part of this so please could you take time to read the information sheet and ask any questions you may have before completing the questionnaire.

Thank you for your time,

James Voisey

may I just quickly reiterate how important the first two pages are. University ethics is very strict and without proper completion we may not be able to use your results.

Thanks

*Also if mods could please sticky this so it doesn't get lost that would be great, thank you*

I filled this in last night for you. Some questions I had to stop and think for a moment, but it only took 5 minutes and I'm sure you'll get a few from the board filling it in. Have you tweeted it? You might get a few more answers.

Filled it in. I didn't quite know what answer to give on your question about safe standing as Plainmoor has two terraces but the rest was straightforward. Best of luck with your paper.

Thank you for the comments guys, all feedback is helpful.

If anyone is currently interested this is how the completions have gone so far team by team:

Plymouth Argyle 9 5.1%
Exeter City 22 12.5%
Bristol City 78 44.3%
Bristol Rovers 21 11.9%
Yeovil Town 0 0%
Torquay United 15 8.5%
Swindon Town 28 15.9%
AFC Bournemouth 3 1.7%

Completed it for you. Good luck.

Agreed, I put no to safe standing, but not because I don't want standing to be safe, just like the Pop Side!!

Thank you for all comments and feedback, is greatly appreciated

All done for you mate.

did this a couple of days ago. Good luck !

Completed. You should consider asking the TUST to include a link in their monthly newsletter, they'd probably be happy to do so and it'll bump up your Torquay submissions by quite a bit. Would be interested in reading the final version of the dissertation as well. I think the form could have done with a open question where responders could have put in their reason for their team being un successful because I think it'd be hard to judge that Torquay struggles due to being a retirement area full of transplants without a long standing civic pride solely through the questions asked.

All sorted ...
