FA rules only allow a game to be moved in the event of security/safety concerns. A club cannot elect to move a tie for purely financial motivation.

The rules changed about 3 or 4 years back now.
Temporary seating is, I think, permissable.

I'm not wrong at all Nobby, I just wasn't specific enough. In the case of a lower league team away at a Premiership team, as the example in this case was using, the away team does get 50% and the pool cut comes out of the home team's share. Although in a reply this is cut down again as the FA take 5% directly which is taken out of both teams' shares. Look it up on thefa.com - Section 22, (d) and (e)

Tal_Hides is right. In fact having a look on the FA website the rules regarding this are extremely complicated. Perhaps SI should take a look and make sure the game is set up properly in this department or at least as close as is possible taking into account how comlicated it is.

Another thing to note is that there are strict maximum and minimum dimentions for playing areas. Might not be to SIs liking as this is a new feature which really has a lot of restriction on it. The maximum is 120x82yards. The mimimum is 109x70yards but I am sure I have been able to make them bigger/smaller than this in the game. Might be wrong though.

You were wrong. You stated both teams get 50% when in fact they get 45%, plus you even questioned your certainty about what you thought.

Evidently you cant read. I guess I should requote:

I thought the official rules were that the away team actually gets 50% of all gate receipts? I have never bothered to check if this is the case in FM, and if it's 25% then I'm pretty sure that's wrong. Rules for the FA Cup definately state that the away team get 50%.

I stated that I thought this was the case but wasn't 100% certain until I checked the rules which proved me right. Dont bother including a quote in your post if you dont actually read it!
