Cheers Tony; I got to all 4 provinces for the rugby and OWC as well.

Sorry for the delays, things got hectic with essay deadlines and exams.
The survey gathered steam again around Easter and was downloaded for the final write-up at 1,236 responses. I was very pleased with the total, it left plenty of data to plough through and I hope I did it justice. Thanks to all those who helped. I'll come back on to provide a summary after I've received my final mark for the project; should be end of the month or thereabouts.
Cheers and all the best.

Hi,
Will be wrapping up the survey at the end of the week to start working with the data. Hopefully get a few more responses in before then. Very appreciative to all who have helped me out in taking the survey and keeping the bumps ticking over. For any who might be interested, will let you know how many responses it totals.

Thanks for all the bumps. I best chip in with one myself.

@Hashtag: As I said, I'm studying at the University of Warwick so I'm not actually in the country where my study is centred. Also, a dissertation is only 25% of my final-year assessment, so I have to juggle the data collection with my other workload. For both reasons (not to mention a few others), it would be virtually impossible for me to get the data I need by approaching people in the street.

Thanks to everyone who has taken it so far. Everywhere I've posted it's surpassed my expectations so hoping for some good data. I can post an executive summary or something when it's a wrap.

Hi,
I'm a final-year History-Sociology student at the University of Warwick and I'm working on a sociology dissertation based on the relationship between sports and national identity, with particular reference to Northern Ireland and the Republic, and looking especially at GAA, rugby and football. I've designed a survey and if anyone would be willing to spend about 10 minutes completing it you would help me out enormously and I'd be incredibly grateful. The web link is here:

If anyone has any questions or thoughts I'd be more than happy to hear them, so feel free to mail me. The project will be carried out in accordance with the ethical guidelines established by the British Sociological Association, and anonymity would be guaranteed.
Really hoping some of you can help!
All the best.
