Radimský, Marek ; Šíma, Jan (advisor) ; Krause, Veronika (referee)
Title: The Impact of Stadium Spectators on the Home Advantage Phenomenon in European Football Objective: The aim of this thesis is to identify the magnitude of home advantage in selected football leagues during the seasons before COVID-19 and in the 2020/21 season, and to determine whether the presence of spectators significantly influences HA. If confirmed, the study will also examine whether the number of spectators is a significant factor. Methods: The magnitude of HA is identified using the method of percentage home point success. To test the significance of the presence and number of spectators on HA, paired and unpaired two-sample t-tests are used, respectively. The normality of input data is verified using histograms and the Shapiro-Wilk test. Visualization of the dataset distribution is conducted using boxplots. Results: The results of all examined leagues collectively show a statistically significant decline in HA during the COVID-19 season compared to the ten-year pre- pandemic average. This finding indicates that the presence of spectators is very important for HA. Conversely, the difference in HA decline between two groups of leagues, categorized by the size of their spectator attendance, was not statistically significant. This suggests that the mere number of spectators may not play a...

Karel, Ondřej ; Šíma, Jan (advisor) ; Krause, Veronika (referee)
Title: Optimising regulations in Czech professional football Objectives: The main objective of the thesis is to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the regulation of Czech professional football. Another objective was to create a comprehensive set of information on the possibilities of regulation in professional football. Methods: The research was conducted through a combination of comparison, descriptive analysis and in-depth interviews, with the object of interest being the governing bodies of Czech professional competitions and professional clubs playing in the Czech Republic. Results: The research has shown that the level of intervention of governing bodies in Czech football is close to the optimum, as at the moment no instrument has been reliably identified that would provide ideal conditions for the development of Czech football in its entire complex form. More activity should be directed by the FAČR to the area of effective control over youth football, as this is what it largely finances. On the other hand, the management of professional football in adult categories should continue to be of a liberal nature. The FAČR could take the example of the type C criterion from the comparing licensing regulations, the non-compliance with which is not directly sanctioned, but clearly shows the...
