generally speaking, id like to be a budget team for as long as i have the salary floor exemption at the end of next season. I think my team is good enough depth/balance wise that a couple more pieces will make me a pretty competitive non-playoff or fringe team. With the salary cap/tv increase alone ill probably be able to afford those pieces, so i would ideally like to hang around div 2 for a season before i really revamp my team. I think, theoretically speaking, i probably have until next season end to get my arena to div 2 shape since the salary cap will matter by then. I guess my main goal next season will just be to find excellent value players and pour the rest of the money into arena.
So ill probably have 10k attendance starting next season, and ive heard the sweetspot is around 18k. 15k seems like a reasonable target. attendance revenue might be more difficult with a .500 record, so theres that too i guess.
