If his gates are confirmed at around 255k that's around 35k over others with better record (so more road wins) and WR and despite losing the rival game and coming off a demotion (so a perennial low score in the last season performance part of the fan survey) it does seem weird.
That would also be more than 50k above the league average which sounds unlikely, the average being around 200k. I don't have the numbers in front of me but I think he's doing better in boxes and courtside which are more resilient, but notably also in bleachers. Bleachers and LT are volatile and you should get screwed big time if you have a bad or mediocre fan survey.
Btw forget about getting Marin to look into this. The last time I promoted to D2 in Utopia, my gates went something like 249k>352k>350k>351k>348k. I posted in bugs after the second game and he told me to monitor for a few games, I did for a coupke of weeks and when it became clear the first game was 100k short as the others hovered around 350k like clockwork and 3-4k from each other without changing prices, he told me there was nothing he could do as too much time had passed anyway.
Now that I mentioned it, I seem to recall my gates towards the end of the season in D3 were around 250k actually and I very much doubt I was using a better than basic PR manager. I remember because I argued with Marin that the first game was played as if I was still in D3.
