Please Help Me With My Dissertation Questionnaire! Scottish sports fans needed!

Hi everyone,
I am a postgraduate student at the Manchester Metropolitan University and currently working on my dissertation for which I am looking for British sports fan to participate in my survey.
I already started collecting my questionnaires a while ago and today I just received a notice saying that the site I used first was hacked and now all my data is gone! So, never use kwiksurvey (just an advise, if you don't want this happening to you!) So, I have to start collecting my questionnaires all over again!
So, i would be really grateful if you could help me! I am looking for British people to complete my questionnaire. It takes no longer than 5 minutes and it's very easy. It's about sports events in the UK and how they can create national pride.

It would be really great if you could take 5 minutes and follow the link below. And also if you have any British friends that would be willing to complete it, it would be great if you could forward it to them, as I need as many answers as possible, and time is running now that I lost almost 70 questionniares. Thank you a lot in advance. Much appreciated!!!
The role of the media in creating national identity and pride during mega sports events in the UK Survey

I've had a look at it. All the examples you use are of English sportspeople. Don't you think you could have included questions about the Welsh Grand Slam, Scotland beating the Wallabies, Andy Murray and tennis majors, Rory McIlroy and golf, etc, etc, etc.

I was going to do it but the questions were too biased towards English sportspeople.

I am English born but do think that by putting the request in a Scottish based site that there
would have been more about Scots, N. Irish and even Welsh athletes !!

I did try to skip some of the questions but it wouldn't let me so that was that, I closed the page !!

Likewise, I looked at it, and started it but gave up. It is mainly about English teams and really no point in my trying to answer.

Maral, I wish you good luck with your studies, but I do wonder whether you ought to re-jig the thing to mean English sport fans as that does seem to be the main thrust of your questions.

Also, that question about the "National Anthem": is that the song that goes on about god, the queen and crushing rebellious Scots?

I DO wish you well in your course, and I do realise that putting together a questionnaire is not as simple as it looks, but I suggest you might want to revise this one, really.


All best wishes.

That's because the Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish never win anything.

The Scottish national anthem, "Flower of Scotland." Is that the one that goes on about "sending the English home to think again"?
