Yes probably that's why =D

I heard about a theory which assumes that there's a cap for the revenue of a match... Don't know if it's true...

i read that there is a soft cap on attendance @ 20,000

but just like the potential cap u can go over it but it would be hard but it does explain how teams get 21,000

examples

if there wasnt a cap/but there is a cap
18,000 18,000
19,000 19,000
20,000 20,000
21,000 20,333
22,000 20,666
23,000 21,000
24,000 21,333

& remember it is getting harder & harder to find more fans willing to pay to come as well

Even if you're not able to fill all 21,000, I believe having over 20,000 seats makes it more likely you'll be able to hit that potential cap. I'm sure there's not a ton of concrete proof there, but from my attendance history, once I added a few extra seats to get up to 20,500, I found my attendance was generally closer to the 20,000 mark.

i had a 5-8 game stretch with ~20160 selled places, varying entry fees and free bleachers ;)

When i bring that up, someone had a theory that it is dependent on the arena size, don't know if he was right but i cracked this number at the first PO game(if my memory is right i cans earch a screenshot tomorrow), and i build some extra seats meanwhile.(another explanation would be a boost through cup final)

This is true, you would have to lower prices to fill more seats.

More seats does not equal more money though. It is all about finding the sweet spot (equilibrium) to maximize profit. Right number of seats for the right price for the highest profit.

I bet you could sell well over 20000 tickets with a huge arena but you would have to sell tickets at the minimum price which would just lose you a lot of money most likely.
