Abstract

Qualitative analysis of the relationship between club attachment and match attendance: the case of a football club

Fans' attachment to their teams and the attraction of new fans are essential in a developed sports economy. In Hungary, this problem has been unsolved for decades in the domestic football league, while new stadiums have been built with spectacular investments and the utilization of these facilities could be significantly improved. With the help of qualitative research and in-depth interviews, our research examines the relationship between match attendance and attachment to the club for Mol Fehérvár FC, a member of the Hungarian first-class football championship of the OTP Bank Liga. According to our results, the club has deviated from the path that the fans expect from it based on its tradition, while core fans lack respect and appreciation. All this may explain the problem of the low match attendance numbers. Through the example of the investigated club, the present research sheds light on the situation that a specific situation has developed in football, which pushes the need and necessity of the fan into the background, and the results even raise the question of whether clubs need fans at all.
