Subject: Season 70

The real robbery was at Cobra v Beer. Shots: 8 - 21. Final score: 5 - 1.

Wow must be super tactical points though ;)

Won to make it to 57pts, 1pt behind the leader with the season finale winner takes all for auto promotion to the prem.

3rd place on 43pts so we’re miles ahead of the rest…but feels like another set of playoffs for me…

But fingers crossed ;)

Only 6 teams have home games left. Things might change very slightly.

Nothis stats seem to indicate not having a roof can put a dent in attendance revenue. One of lowest amounts money despite being top half of table.

30% under average income, in fact.

I do think my average gate money will outweigh the cost difference I have per week on my stadium comfortably, and I would expect my biggest crowd on Wednesday to come. My crowds this season have been better than last season without a doubt.

I have the same kind of info for 2:1 but because Night Night screwed up everyones stats I have to wait until the season is finished to post it.

Hey, what's your fan club size/fan mood like? I ask because you've got a slightly better attendance average than me over the whole season.

And Barstable should probably expand a little.

Or increase ticket prices.

Although with 30k, probably both.

Really interesting. Years ago (decades!). I did loads of analysis where I tried to strip out the multiple variables - including looking at weather, fan club size, mood, seat pricing, seat type. Honestly there were too many variables for me to properly figure them all out - albeit looking at revenue was a good way of combining attendance and price.

Weather is random and really impacts attendance, absolutely hammers you if no roof, so that’s the only action you can do but negatively impacts even if you do. And weather itself seems to be completely random, so you can simply be unlucky some seasons.

My fan club has increased consistently over the season from around 1,150 to 1,500 (currently 1,488), and thanks to the joint lowest fan expectations in our league the mood has been hovering around 90%+ most of the season (currently 86% after last night's loss).

Another factor in attendance was that I lowered the ticket prices after the stadium expansion from around £9/10 to £8 to get more folks in the door.

I suspect Forestman hit the nail on the head about the impact of the weather. If that's completely random then you may have just been unlucky this season. Without looking through all my matches, it does feel like I've had better weather this season than most of my previous seasons..

Weather has a huge effect even if you have a roof from what I have seen too.

This also suggests I may benefit from expanding the stadium if I expect progress to continue in some form in the next couple of seasons - c.25k seems about right for the medium term. This is my second priority after upgrading my brilliant junior coach to magical. I'll be selling a couple of players over the next few weeks which should help to fund the coach at least.

I would suggest you expand as soon as you can.
