Onderwerp: Stadiums

I’m trying to research stadiums again to estimate how big a stadium I need and the importance of splurging on a roof to avoid drops in revenues on rainy days

Ironically I’ve ended up reading threads from 10+ years ago with my own posts from then or others referring me helping me...!!!!

However some of this is ancient. Has anything significant changed over the past few years?

“an english user - who else? i think it was forestman - has done research about this. he managed to proof that there is a strict correlation between the clouds in the sky and the actual weather :] . if i have understood his other findings properly, the average attendence of visitors will be reduced to 80% of the possible maximum because of the changes of the weather. “

I can’t really help as when I thought I was quitting I took mine up to 96,000.....the most I have got is 80,000. The money was amazing that day!

Was convinced for some time that around 30,000 all seater was the way to go on a cost, benefit basis.

Now I am not so sure as I have had to put the prices up for a season while in the prem.

30,000 is too small for the Prem.

Yes it certainly is. Been upping the prices to curb demand.

Probably fine for div 2 though

Well my best crowd was 79,996

Cannot afford to do much with the stadium so I guess I will just have to let 30,000 rich people in!

How much did those 79k pay?

It was over £500k, how much I exactly I can't remember.

What d others charge for tickets and what division? I haven't changed my cost for ages.

I am of literally no use...Will check if I still have my old spreadsheets which might have details. I notice that the rules state that the max price you can charge is £150....!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow £150 that's huge! lol
I may put my prices up a bit tbh....and see how things go.

I've got my prices at £8 and £9 in my 25k stadium. I've sold out in II so far this season (time for a price hike I think).

I have my benches set at £4... I tweaked up my stands a little as from memory default are a bit low.

£7 and £8 on 61000 i get full sell out against 3 of my opponents almost which is about 480,000 ish all fully covered in div 2 england.....if that helps....

I upped my prices to £10 and £9 and crowds dropped a lot but maybe down to me being shit in the league......
