I've made it to DIII with a much smaller arena. And my attendance revenue is only $20K less than the league average and most of those teams have arenas that are twice as big as mine.

Arena expansion is complicated. In general, bigger is better sure. But the more seats you have, the lower price you have to set to get close to full attendance. Thus, I've gotten by thus far by just raising the prices of the seats I have and focusing on building a team which can win. If you don't win, you won't fill a big arena anyway. Plus winning is more fun.

Plus it'll be relatively cheaper (because you'll have much more money) to you to expand later when you sell off some of your trainees once you've developed them a bit.

True, and I plan on building out my arena from time to time. But having good players is more important in my opinion. Besides winning, I know I can sell off parts whenever I'm financially pinched. And, in response to the poster's question, a 7000+ arena is plenty big enough for DV and DIV from my experience.

Next season will be interesting for me as I won't have the promotion bonus and I'm running a break even economy.

Exactly. If you had more seats and found the right price for them, you wouldn't be stuck in a break even economy.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

But then I wouldn't be in DIII yet either.

Then you won't be leaving div.III either. Unless back down to div.IV.

That hurts my feelings Lisa. And I thought my team was doing quite well.

I certainly am not saying you're doing it wrong, since you got to where you are. But I will say I disagree - the higher up you go, the harder it becomes to obtain extra income and devote it to arena building. The salaries you need to stay up in III are significantly greater than in IV, and it doesn't take much in salary at all to get out of V.

No doubt. But every one of my players are worth more now. And I can always sell one for a huge upgrade anytime.

Well my fate in the playoffs all hang on my last league game against the Purple Chihuahuas. If I win I snag HCA against him but if I lose he retains it. Other than that I know I can beat the #1 in my league if I CT him. I lost my last game to him by 1 at normal, 10 enthusiasm.

Also I'll look for the offsite tool but I'm already signed up with one so would that be a problem?

I wish it really was "cheap" when it comes to buying decent PG/SG's.

I will continue expanding my arena as much as possible though even if I do promote this season. Thanks for the feedback.
