Hi Guys and Girls,

I'm currently studying Sports Business Management at Leeds Metropolitan University, and am currently working on my dissertation. The title of which is "Licensed to Succeed", and the overall aim of the study is "To explore the effect of the introduction of the franchise system (licensing system) in Rugby League." The main focus of this will be on competitive balance and also attendances in the league.

The questionnaires are just 1/4 types of data collection i am doing, and will be used to support / counter the statistics that i have compiled. These statistics consist of a Competitive Balance analysis, which is a formula that shows how competitive our league is, as well as an attendance analysis. The final part of data collection will be interviews with SL clubs (players, coaches etc.)

The questionnaire is very simple, and is open to interpretation, [sizeplease make sure to tick the box and then explain your answer in full. [/size

For ethical issues no-one under the age of 18 should complete the survey, and if you are under 18 and choose to do so, then it is at your own risk. All responses given will be anonymous and as such, it means you are fully able to give a full response to each of the questions.

Your help is much appreciated, so thank you in advance!

Considering some of your past remarks on our board and your smart@ss avatar..... Im out.

Its only abit of banter.

appreciate it mate!

done and good luck. My son is doing his dissertation now can see how much work he is having to put in.

Not done in the hope that you will ditch the Mickey Mouse course and study for a real degree.

Done.

sorry but can i ask why you feel it appropriate to even write that? if you dont want to help me, then dont! but please dont slag me or my degree off!

RE- carneys babe and rogues appreciate the help!

What like Northern Studies?

You will always find something to moan about

Completed hun, good luck with the dissertation!

thank you, lot of work still to do, but the reception from most of the people on the forums has helped heaps!

Just a quick question regarding the survey.

Do you want a definitive Yes/No answer, because some of the questions have reasons for it being Yes and reasons for it being No?

if you put yes, and then explain reasons for both, plus i think as a fault of the survey which cant be changed you can click both yes and no, then just explain for both! appreciate the help, and asking for clarification!

I'm not "slagging" anything.

I'm merely stating that imo that course is next to worthless. Put it this way, whenever I see a CV with that kind of course on it, it goes straight into the physical or electronic bin. Waste of time and effort in almost every way possible. The post in no way is aimed at you, rather your choice of "degree". Not your fault entirely, frankly it's the previous government who I blame.

Of course only my opinion, but one that a lot of my colleagues also share.
