This has to be a bug and I think it stems from the fan survey which was screwed up due to the delay at the beginning of the season. My team is now 3-0 and my fan survey gives me 2 balls and says me the manager isn't trying to improve the team.
This game(tonight) should have been at least in the 17K-18K range not down in the 15K range. If I were coming off a loss, I would understand, but like I said, I was 2-0 in the league and won my cup game.
PS. Don't BS me, this is a bug.

First of all, language. I'm tempted to just delete your post because of it, but I'll replay with a warning: do not repeat or your posts will be deleted.

Second, you've changed your ticket prices in the middle of the playoffs and would like to claim that you know exactly how much attendance you should get even though a new season has started (which resets a lot of important stuff related to fan spirit) and the ticket prices have changed.

Third, this is not a bug.

So the late fan survey after the first game of the season hasn't messed things up? Even now, It is 9:05 PM and my game that was supposed to start at 7:30Pm hasn't even started yet. Things with the game seem buggy this season and if there isn't a bug with the attendance, the attendance algorithm should be looked at. No way a team in real life that wins the division last season, goes to the final 4 in the cup last season, and starts the season off 3-0, would never have 7,000 empty seats to start a season. I averaged 580K a home game last season and I get 508K 1st game and 509K the second with a 2-0 record.
Something seems out of whack, I just wish I could be watching my game that is very late rather than typing this.

@Yellow cake: Success of your last season is only one factor of the fan spirit and attendance calculation. Many of the other factors are reset to their default values starting each season, and those can affect your attendance negatively if you had a high fan spirit ending you last season. Think of it as if the offseason was much longer and the fans cooled off somewhat during the break.

@SIAMPA: A) Just as I explained above, the season beginnings can be tough, but in your case your income is not all that lower than some of the attendances you've had last season.
B) I'm not sure I understand what happens when you log in. Which category are you referring to?

And now I lower my prices and am 4-1 and only 14K fans come to see a game between two 3-1 teams.
I used to think it was the game engine being old that was going to sink this game...but it just might be the attendance algorithm. It really makes no sense.
