Your stadium attendance is aligned with numerous factors just like your club rating... One of the most important factors is having an overall club value of close to 100mil, alongside having quality players close to 90rating and a decent league position

One of the previous managers of MOT Whites obviously didn't know this and spent all the money in the bank for a short term fix, which in turn caused a domino effect of decline

It can be a catch 22 situation when first starting, especially in or close to the top flight because you need good players to get a good league position and you need to spend money to get them

Like it has been said in recent and historical forum posts, "the game is fine balancing act" of numerous factors,, emphasis on the numerous numbers and finances lol

It will take alot of time for you to fix MOT Whites back to how they were, but you'll be able to do it,, with selling a few 90+ youth academy graduates and biting the bullet for a couple of hefty tax bills, before you think about getting the 6501-7501 staff and a team capable of challenging for major honours

If you look at the history, MOT Whites was at the top of Serie A for 20+ seasons, so it's reasonable for them to have a fully developed stadium.


With that stadium to fill at your level it will be tough, and your maintenance fees could be crippling. You won't get anywhere near a full house no matter how low you set your ticket price so just experiment with prices to find the maximum overall income - and remember that your fans do cost you a bit of money too so the total ticket sales aren't the only number you need to look at. 500,000 from 20,000 fans is better than 500,000 from 25,000.

The flip side is that stadium improvement is an enormous cost that actually has an incredibly long payback in cash terms. So if you can make it through where you are now then you will have a massive advantage on other clubs below the top 30. You might have to sell a couple of top players and just use their fees to burn through until you're stable financially. Tough but probably worth it long term.


Apology accepted

maybe you mis-read or mis-understood my comment,,, Yes I seen the history, and my observation still stands,,, a previous manager spent all the money in the bank for a short term fix which caused a domino effect of decline.

My turn to eat humble pie! Fair enough

And I know Firesilver will jump on this...

Almost 40 is indeed more than 20
