Dons_1988 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I did the survey, but yeah, it's a bit of a shambles. I have no idea what you'll get from those questions. The whole Italian football bit is completely irrelevant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who the "they" are you're talking about but whoever they are will no doubt be aware of my opinion on this matter.. 4 hours ago, ropy said: The supervisor seems to have disassociated himself with the exercise. As is normally the case. Randoms come along ask for help when if they had spent some time reading and engaging with other P&B members they'd have gleaned a lot more than some spurious survey would provide. Even to the point where it would allow them to tailor the questions on that survey. I know people think I'm being a bit of a miserable c**t here, but it's all about give and take. I'm certainly not stopping others from answering their survey (although, I've always found online anonymous surveys to be the lowest possible threshold for data collection - pretty sketchy for a higher report while being on the cusp of amateurish when it's for a dissertation), however I feel that if you are to use P&B as a resource you should at least contribute to the "collective whole" as it were. Normally these people disappear like snow off a dyke, never to be seen again, and sure there's no crime in that, just seems a bit shan, imo of course.

Miguel Sanchez Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I think Ric is a bit weird but he's completely right on this. I have no idea how or why so many people make accounts on here to plug dissertation surveys. If they care about football so much, why are they not P&B members already? If they're not P&B members, why do they care what P&B members think? How many other places are they flooding with their questions, and what effect does that have on their results? Going by the responses here it seems that this particular questionnaire isn't very well put together, and isn't as relevant to the situation it's asking questions about that the membership would like it to be. Rangers died. The university of Paisley is a joke. Carry on. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably there's a roaming lecturer going about Scotland's institutions of higher learning who's a heavy user of P&B and insists that their classes write at least one paper on Scottish football. No doubt they're massively popular. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Just now, 10menwent2mow said: I got about 10 questions in and then stopped. Horrendously written questionnaire. Good luck writing a dissertation. How high do they set the bar? I've genuinely no idea. The OP must have an inkling he'll reach the required standard. I find it hard to believe universities would accept shite like that. I always thought they were for clever people. I remember a teacher telling us to write a review of a book we'd read, with the caveat, no football books. My plans to review The Shoot annual were brought to an abrupt halt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Calum, Rangers died. They were not relegated. They were not 'placed' in any league. As a new club, Sevco had to apply to play in the Third Division the vacancy caused by Rangers dying, and were unfairly given preference over clubs who had been waiting for years to apply after previous failed applications. As noted, it was hilarious. I wish this version, Sevco, would die just like Rangers did. Edited March 1, 2021 by DA Baracus 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
