On the Football Terrace in the Czech Republic

Original language description

Football is one of the most popular sports all over the world. Given the long history of spectator sports events consumption it is not a surprising fact that there have also been serious manifestations of spectator aggression. In this context, we realize that the rapid development of sport itself has brought problems and complicated relationships, especially at the professional level (corruption, homophobia, violence, and racism). Methodology: The goal of this paper is to analyze the relationship between fans’ verbal and other expression and their violent behavior at selected football stadiums in the Czech Republic. Primary data were collected by a questionnaire survey (PAPI method) mainly at the Eden stadium in 2015 and 2016. A total of 462 respondents (aged 26.29 ± 10.19 years old) participated in this research and all of the respondents were attending in a stand of home team supporters. Results and discussion: In our research, we found that expressions of demolishing the stadium and other disturbances are considered the most serious expression of violent behavior by 79.22% of the fans. On the other hand, 77.06% of the fans stated that boo is the least serious problem. Conclusions: Based on the ascertained data of the research, we found that supporters under 23 years of age are more tolerant of negative social phenomena in the surroundings of the stadium.
