Yeah sorry about that, thought i might get a few more replies putting it in the Everton discussion.

Thanks everyone for your responses and co-operation so far, you have been a great help!

Hi Everton fans, I am a third year student at the University of Brighton, where I am carrying out an investigation into the recent introduction of Setanta into televised league football and the affect they are having on the game. I have approached this forum and other select forums as I feel that you could have a valuable input into this investigation and provide a good representative sample. I feel that the results gathered from the investigation will form a highly fascinating look into football broadcasting and its affect upon the modern game. The questionnaire is a short and simple form that asks for your views, with their being no right or wrong answer. It should take no less than 5 minutes to complete and should be easy to follow and understand. THE COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRE WILL BE TREATED WITH ABSOLUTE CONFIDENTIALITY. INFORMATION IDENTIFYING THE RESPONDANT WILL NOT BE DISCLOSED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. I would be very grateful if you could reply to the questionnaire by April 20th due to my investigation being under a deadline. Thank you in advance for your co-operation and good luck with the last few games of the season! I look forward to hearing from you.
