How come i got less fans at my home game tonight against my rival and more fans in my private league game and my cup win against a bot team last week. I had 72% of the stadium filled tonight and 75% for my cup game and 84% for my private league.

I was under the impression that you get more fans for your rival games than less. My last game on the road was a tv game that i won which i believed would improve my fan base and merchandising. I also have not lost this season so i don't know why the fans would not be coming to show there support.

Does anybody have any ideas.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em, Know when to walk away and know when to run. You never count your money when youre sittin at the table. Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

Your Private League has free entrance?

Your rival is bottom league so less people are interested in coming to the game.

what does that have to do with anything. If it was free entrance then why am i not getting more fans. I don't believe its free entrance i just don't see the money. In past years my PL attendance more or less went as my regular attendance during the season. This still does not answer why i had less fans for my rivalry game after a TV game and being undefeated.

I think the private league attendance was high because your opponent was a D.1 team from a big country. The last PL I played in was with a bunch of teams waaaaaay better than mine and my arena was sold out for all of them. The cup game was not against a bot team(38000), and I guess that cup games have a slightly higher attendance in the beginning of the season than league games, especially if the opponent is an active team. It does seem a little strange, but 3% less fans isn't too big a drop and if the cup games have higher attendance than league games, I think it is understandable.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

So i guess when the Celtic's were bad for a few years and the laker's were good nobody went to see the Celtic's when they came to town. If its your rival the fans come because the despise the other team. They don't decide whether this team is worth coming to see if they are real fans. Base on your point of view i have no real fans.

well you right he changed to an actual team a few days before my game i did not even notice. Maybe you right about the attendance for private leagues but you think my fans would rather watch my backups pay a division 4 team then my starters play their hated rival. I don't know how you can think that is understandable. If it was a against any old team maybe. If you are right then whats the point of the rival team if fans don't care.

This is only my own subjective observation of BB, not my point of view on rivalry. Lower league position, less attendance.

It would affect attendance via the fan survey but not necessarily for the Rivalry game.
