So I expanded my stadium to 15,000 this week, and by timing it correctly I was hoping for a big crowd. This was not the case, as I only drew 6,046 fans.
I had read that under "bad" conditions you can expect an attendance multiplier of 20X # of supporters. I have 500 supporters, so I was at least expecting a crowd of 10,000. What gives?
I've won my last two games, outscoring the opponents 10-2, and my supporters are High On Life. The weather conditions were "pretty good for football" (overcast).

I haven't gone to check, but two things would case the attendance to fall off. How was the other team doing and what was the weather?

The smarter supporters cause problems with the attendence, I had only 8800 in my first home match of the season, and I have 1300 supporters. It is also like what Chris said how the other team is doing and the weather.

The other team sucks ass, but the weather was "pretty good for football" as stated above.

I have begun to hate the Hattrick weather prognosticator thingie. Last two home games it has my locale listed as overcast (with the fans happy that it didnt rain)
I'm looking out my window and I don't see a cloud in the sky .... grrrrr

And Stogey, if the other team is sucking hindtit, it will reduce your attendance. Which is the "smarter" fan, but they seem kinda stupid to me.
