I hope so and of course I can understand it anyway we are cutting seats in the arenas cause "is not realistic" and it happens to lose half fans in one season when we needed 8 seasons to get them...
You will never have 4,000 fans in II -- that's the way the game is designed. And you will receive a fanbase bump if you promote, so I don't see what the problem is.
