I don't think it's normal, you may want to get Marin to have a look. There is no way that a bad team in a higher division (no boycott) makes more gate money than a top team in a lower one, if prices are set correctly. Unless the top team in a lower league also has the promotion bonus and even then I wouldn't be sure about that.

Doesn't matter: higher division gets you more gate money even if your team sucks. Now, with boycott at -30% maybe you can have lower gates in a higher division, but generally speaking that will never be the case. This is not about promotion bonus or not, it's just a matter of fact. Average for D1 is roughly 500k, for D2 it is around 300k and for D3 it is somewhere around 200k. The odds the same team makes less in a higher division with reasonably set prices are next to none.

Profit is a different thing and I believe things are more balanced now than they used to be.

Thanks, a drop of 30k it's weird. Now I'm 0-7 but the 1st home game I was 0-1.
I think there is something wrong here. Also merch dropped compared to IV division!
And I didn't ask for a promotion.

What were your prices in D4? If they were close enough, then it has to be a bug. Merch also should have increased not dropped.

I just remembered I had a problem in the past where they took away 100k. (286181.4)
With the same prices my gate receipts were: 249k>352k>349k>351k. Note that the first game may be iffy as you are missing several bits in the Fan survey and maybe it's the very first game so you don't have the win effect from the previous game. Marin of course didn't answer for 2 or 3 weeks (I had to send him a B-mail) and then said he could not check what happened. Basically I promoted, and my gate receipts stayed about the same for the first game despite higher division and promotion bonus. These bugs happen.

It is not a bug, i remember had similar situation like 30 seasons ago. Was making around 190k in div 4; and average of div 3 is around 190k; so if you losing you can make as little as 120k in the end of season; while winning in div 4 you could be making 190k; tbh i think with very good lower tier seats iv had like 210k average in div 4; and 360k in div 3 (with 22-0 or 21-1 record and decent cup runs). The tv contract increase does not help to cover increased salary floor; and merch drops because you are loosing everything. In div 2; it is the same. Not sure about div 1; havent been there much, but i think its around the same income for winning div 2 and loosing div 1.

On the possitive side, you could win by getting first pick, and hopefully decent player.
