It's way too early to say that already.

You'll always earn less money in the first weeks, because the fans aren't that happy yet. Less merchandise, less arena income. Wait untill you won a few matches in a row, that will give you at least the 50k more. Add another 25k extra when you win your cupmatch and you are in the + already.



This is ridiculous... fans from sports I watch turn out early season whilst optimism is high from the break between seasons.... if anything the attendences should be higher at the beginning than mid-way through the season... (and drop off faster depending on how team is doing on-court) then towards playoffs pick up steam again...

If someones just won a trophy there should be absolutely no reason whatsoever to see a drop in fans.

Hmm I agree with that, but from my experience the income is less in the first weeks (that might be due to the loss in the PO too), I can't speak for others of course. But in HT they reset the fan mood in off season, so I kind of expected that here too, but i'm not sure though.

slightly different but along the same lines...

if your team played a 2 legged semi final.... won the first leg 120-60 then fielded scrubs and lost by 10-20 in the second game.... do you think that fans would boycott the final??

that is in essence what happens here.... no way would the teams fans not show up to witness the finale to their teams season....

if the arena attendence is truly going to reflect fan sentiment then it is scenarios like this that need to be addressed....

STH is another for debate... how/why a team cant improve beyond 4000 ish?

A franchise gathers momentum - take Springlfield Drunkers or Toroo... both already household names in this game... they attract fans/supporters from outside their own country.

Take Real Madrid - fans travel from miles to go and watch games.. bottom line is this is an example of an elite real life franchise and the top bracket in BB seems to be a Recreativo Huelva!

Just got the financials for the week, and I didn't notice tv revenue. It would be great if it could be denoted somewhere on the page, just so we can see it is actually coming in.
On the other hand, my merchandise went through the roof (well, not really through the roof but it was the highest it has ever been) and I haven't even played a home game yet.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

I understood from the announcement that the intention was to restrict the teams making huge profits each week and thus pushing up inflation. I'm pretty certain that isn't me.


Excellent point. I feel the same with a totally different perspective:

When I started in 10/07 I was put in division IV, other teams were randomly distributed in div. II or III and started out with much more income. I bought, trained and sold some talents (no daytrading) and steadily invested every $ in a quick improvement of the team. This is buying good trainees, training hard and accepting high wages, expanding arena, high level staff, etc.

I did this because I saw and feared the differences between the divisions being so strong - so I badly wanted to be in a higher division. I am in div. II now and somehow expected this to be "payback time" in terms of at least not having a deficit anymore.

But right when I arrive the revenues are cut. Frustrating...
