Hi all,

Is there a simple formula or method to estimate what your arena size should be based on your number of supporters?

Thanks,
Torrelio

no, where would the fun be in that?!
lots of factors affect how many people come to your home games. you might see these if you are observant and as you gain management experience.
if you would like my opinion then i would not worry about putting too much money into expanding your arena. it is money well spent. There are no maintenance or running costs as such - just the initial investment. you can always adjust the price up or down if you need at certain points of the season to try and fill your arena, for example if you do build more seats than you need.

hope this helps!

If you sell out your seats every game, expand or raise the price of the tickets. It's up to you :)

Try to fill between 90-95% or each type of seats.

The formulas are probably not simple, the attendance you can expect depends on your result, and the various points highlighted in the fans surveys. It also depends on the ranking of the opposing team. You can expect a larger crowd for the play-offs, whereas early in the seasons it's usually lower. It also takes into account promotion bonus, or demotion malus.
