Influence of VAR on the enjoyment of English Premier League in 2020, by social grade
The NRS social grades are a system of demographic classification used in the United Kingdom. The grades are grouped here into ABC1 and C2DE; these are taken to equate to middle class and working class, respectively.
Although the variation between the opinion distribution of different social grades was not substantial the largest difference occurs within the respondents indicating that Premier League matches have become less enjoyable to watch since VAR was introduced. This response was also the most frequent response amongst respondents of both social grades, with 40 and 36 percent of ABC1 and C2DE respondents respectively.
