As someone who has studied Mathematics and Statistics, I will defend the survey with no solution boxes being provided. Attitude surveys can't have open-ended questions, you can't perform analysis when every answer is completely different. The idea of attitude surveys is to identify trends of the opinions within the group, so possible areas to focus on improving can be identified. The issue lies with the report, once the survey data was collected and analyzed, the people behind the report should research possible suggestions for improvement then pass those solutions onto organisations with the ability to implement any usable suggestions. The people in the PFA who just offer percentages based on data and do nothing else with it, not even an acceptable statistical test, are the ones wasting the effort.

@getasia7915 7 ай бұрын

It's a simple solution, the club's have to stop the tours overseas, this would give the players a chance to recover. The players then have to accept that income will drop, so wages available will drop. And the unions should be funded through a percent of the members wages. The funding should be put in place to help players who don't make it as a professional, they have pathways into other professions.

More can be done to identify fans who invade the pitch or who make racists chants ... Using CCTV cameras and stadium bans

What hypocrisy The media DEMAND more football is played because it brings them more subscriptions, continued profit and the monitoring of people. FOLLOW THE MONEY ABOVE THE PLAYERS. Who' are the real benefactors?

How is it the players jobs to give ideas or work out how to deal with stadium security or safety? Dont understand the response of "well what's you solution then". Not their job

I am nor afraid to say that its taken me quite a while to appreciate the comic genius of Martin Keown....... it'd be easy to view him as a senselessly competitive, overly egotistical, charisma black hole..... it just takes time to appreciate his comedy because the character he plays is so thoroughly well constructed that he almost seems like a real w*nker - not the parody I now realise he is..... and he never, NEVER goes for the easy laugh..... or any laugh for that matter.
