rivality is also much random, this only works a little bit if you for a long tme in a league, and in this case you should worked to make the gap small.

But if you against tv matches and their randomness, i would say the schedule is much more bad random. It gives gameplans, where you have "only" 2 home tv matches, and schedules where you don't have an home tv match -> and i don't counted it now but i would say 25% of all teams has such schedule(i got those 3-4 times in my career, and there was a break where they forbid tv games on the last game day).

I agree! Look at the Cleveland Cavs right now, you think their fan support wains after a loss on the road? Perhaps, but do half the fans stop watching? No. I think if you're traditionally a poor team and you lose a close game on the road to a much stronger team, that should increase fan support.

Some poor guy in my league is getting creamed so far and he still has to play me twice on TV this year. If he gets within 10 points, his fans should be happier.

Does the formula currently factor in relegation and promotion? Realistically, I hoped to go .500 my first year in a higher division and I think that's accurate as to what the average fan expects. Anything over .500 or the playoffs should be 4 or 5 balls easily.

On that note, if you're relegated, your fans should expect promotion that year and a first place finish. Kind of like fans in the English Premier League.

now i comes to another wish, something like seasons target ;)

And expectations for single games like in HT, but in this case maybe differences betwenn the amount of visitor should come to, like in Ht.

I don't know soccer so good, but i don't beleve that a teams who promotes in div one and play in the top of the league will have the same amount of ticket and merchandise sales like ManU - here the amount of visitors is mostly a seasonal view(the team who promotes have still a little bonus with the last season categorie, who makes the new seaoson not that hard) - but if he play succesfull you won't recognize a different betwenn an old top team.
