Interesting stat about Essendon's support in Primary schools

[London Docker]

Not too sure this board or the HTB is the right place so please forgive my ignorance.

I'm a primary school teacher and have just completed footy survey about which team the students go for. Interesting to note the slide in Essendon's support compared to previous years.

2010 - 61 kids Ranked 2nd
2013 - 43 kids Ranked 5th
2014 - 36 kids Ranked 7th

I know it is a small sample size (approx 600 kids) however it really did jump out at me. in addition I've had several children tell me the reason they don't support them is due to the the drugs. as these kids will be the ones buying memberships in 10-15 years, the pain of this whole debacle may linger on for a long time.

In London? Seems legit.

 

[Burzum]

Well that's a convincing study, I guess we should just fold then.

If you wouldn't mind actually..

In our day at Glenfairy PS James Hird was the messiah and also Essendon was the cool team. Was also the time that smack shitheads were going crazy. Good to see that this group have learnt that junkies and gear are abominable, Essendon are a poor organisation administratively and hird is a witch doctor cult leader.

 

[Forward Press]

Moved.

Mate. My account is over 5 years old. I've moved backed a few years ago. What kind of fool would think this would be referring to a school in London?

i did mention it was a small sample size of only 600. no need to be a smart alec. not very nice...

 

[Illinois Nazi]

600 is not a small sample size at all, it's quite good for statistical analysis and larger than many surveys you'll see.

I've had several children tell me the reason they don't support them is due to the the drugs. as these kids will be the ones buying memberships in 10-15 years, .

Those kids will be doing drugs in 10 years ... don't panic.

 

[London Docker]

just worked out the percentage

2014 - 6% 36 out of 592
2013 - 8% 43 out of 515
2010 - 12% 61 out of 503

Would be interesting to see the clubs who have risen in popularity and then look at their relative success that year/year before. Seems like a gradual decline (hard to say given you are missing 2 years as well).

Just goes to show kids shouldn't be given choice really.

Very interesting LD, hard to believe really, but then i often misjudge the perceptiveness of kids.
