Blade you may want to do even more. Think about how your supporter increase over the weeks of a season. By week 10 you could need to do another upgrade, maybe you want to jsut to really huge one now and not have to worry about it for a while.

FYI, Hattrix uses 63 ... 2, while some on the conferences have said that 62.5 ... 2.5 is more accurate.

The percentage of seats to use of each type. 63/62.5% terraces, 25% seats, 10% covered and 2/2.5% VIP boxes is generally considered the golden rule when adding to your stadium.

Actually I believe it is reasonable sound. Several teams with overly large arenas that never sold out kept track of how many tickets were sold for each seat type. This is what they came up with. Not sure how closely it fits the data they got they.

I wholeheartedly agree with the 2.5% VIP boxes recommendation. When I had 2%, even when my stadium was 2/3 full those would sell out. I just expanded my stadium and put about 2.8% VIP boxes.
