Research Now Poll Finds Canadians Mostly Undecided on 2011 CFL Grey Cup Champion
Research Now recently conducted a poll to find out where public opinion stood regarding the outcome of the 99th annual Grey Cup Championship game, revealing a very narrow margin between top teams.

LONDON, ENGLAND, August 17, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Research Now recently conducted a poll among 1,000 Canadian respondents aged 18 and over who are members of the Web Perspectives panel, to find out respondents' opinions on which team will become the 2011 Grey Cup champion.

The poll found that most people are uncertain about the outcome of this year's match up. When asked 'which team do you think will win', 39% of Canadian respondents replied that they are not sure. The percentage was far higher among women (45%) than men (22%).

The Montreal Alouettes, however, were favorites with 12% of those surveyed predicting they will come out as this year's CFL champions. The Toronto Argonauts ranked a close second (11%), followed by the BC Lions (10%).

The remaining 5 teams ranked very similar among those surveyed: the Calgary Stampers (6%); the Saskatchewan Roughriders (6%); the Edmonton Eskimos (5%); the Winnipeg Blue Bombers (5%); and the Hamilton Tiger-cats (5%). Given such close results, only history will tell who will win the 2011 CFL Grey Cup championship.

The Canadian Football League (CFL) Grey Cup is the single biggest sporting event in Canada, drawing football fans from across the country. It has long been the nation's largest television event, attracting an impressive 6.25 million viewers last year. With less than 4 months to go, excitement and speculation over the 2011 championship game is already mounting.

This year's Grey Cup championship will be held on November 27 at BC Place Stadium in Vancouver. The city will become the hub of Grey Cup fever, hosting most of the festivities including concerts, team parties, gala events, parades and autograph sessions.*
