| Description | The aim of this paper is to analyse the overall situation in the Czech professional football leagues and their development since gaining their independence in 2016. We have analysed attendance in the stadiums in the seasons from 2014/2015 to 2019/2020 and compared two years under FAČR, two years under LFA and two years under LFA with a new game system. We have also studied the total and average attendance development and the market value of the league and its development. Moreover, we have prepared a questionnaire to create a profile of an average football fan in the Czech Republic. We have found a steadily growing improvement in all the studied areas. Most of the clubs have improved their stadium capacity utilization; furthermore, the club values are constantly growing. |
