There's something to consider while you collect all that data : because of the importance of HCA, lots of managers in competitive leagues wil drop the away game by sending their subs and selecting the "take it easy" setting.

well if its 69% and this effect means it is really between 60-65 i'd say managers that throw those games away are doing it at their own peril.

I dont' know... I don't know how much of an institutional memory there is... the season before the effect was much higher and was definitely self re-enforcing.. I am not persuaded a large change is needed... maybe a small one.. but generally our principle is that if its not largely out of whack its better to keep the playing field even and unchanging rather than be making tweaks left and right. I know it might not seem that way, but we try to not go changing things unless we feel like it needs to make a big difference in the long term of the game.
