For Maximum Size of Stadium it is generally accepted as:

  • Club Members × 12 or 13 if you think you'll lose a lot in the season,

  • Club Members × 15 if you think you'll finish mid-table

  • Club Members × 17 or 18 if you think you'll finish in the top three in your league.

Top Tip 2!

Now the First Class games have started, the Minimum Repayment Time for your expansion will be less, until you have the ratio of the ground in the correct approximate proportions, as you'll be making extra money per week with your better configured stadium. Future expansions however won't have this benefit, as First Class attendances are only a third / a half of One Day games. Even so, you'll still be taking more money per week, with the same maintenance costs.
