Banter or Hate Crime? Part 2
at 17:31 18 Jan 2024

Hi,

A big thank you to everyone who completed my questionnaire and commented on this forum. I'm very grateful.

My first questionnaire followed the arrests of 2 Wolves fans at Brighton in 2019. The paper associated with that data will be published in March and can be accessed here (please note that the $15 cost has got absolutely nothing to do with me, it is the journal's fee)...

I am now writing a paper on some of the data from the questionnaire that you contributed to. I expect this to be published in late 2024.

Good luck with the rest of the season....and if I may add - wow, you've been unbelievably entertaining so far!

Banter or Hate? A huge thank you...
at 08:44 14 Jul 2023

To all those who have completed my questionnaire on the other thread...

An enormous thank you. Over 300 Town fans replied, by far the biggest response I have had from any fan base.

Later this year, my son and I are due to visit Ipswich on our goal of joining the '92 Club' - I'm looking forward to visiting a ground that I haven't been to for 30 years (vs Wolves in the cup). Hoping you have a great season.

And I'll be back in touch in a few months with the findings. Thanks again!

Banter or Hate?
at 09:09 12 Jul 2023

Dear Ipswich Town supporters,

I’m a Wolves fan — coming in peace and hoping you can help me out…

But before I continue, let me congratulate you on an amazing season. I’m sure the Canaries are a tad nervous!

I’m a senior Lecturer at Birmingham City University, writing academic papers as part of my PhD portfolio (Koln University). My research has a focus on the language used by football fans at games — for some people it’s ‘banter’ and for others, it has become a ‘hate crime’. It is a complex, emotive issue.

I want to find out what you think of the language used — I want you to be honest.

The questionnaire is entirely voluntary and completely anonymous. I will only use the data I obtain for academic papers and once complete I will share the data with you on this forum. I have ethical approval granted from Koln University and approval from your administrator for this forum.

I will be comparing your answers with those from supporters of Arsenal, Watford, Wolves, Plymouth and Newcastle.

The questionnaire should only take you a couple of minutes and I would like to thank you in advance. Here is the link:

Kind regards,

Peter Evans
