i wonder if any of you will be able to answer a few questions for me. i'm currently manager of Northwich Vics, and im just about to start season 2020-21. i started my game with teh Vics, and have now established them, after many years of toil and struggle, as a decent Championship side, this will be our third season.
This year we surpassed ourselves and won the league Cup, beating Chelsea 3-1 in the final, so we have european football to look forward to this season. however, the ground, as lovely as it is, is not ours. it has a capacity of 2500, with only 600 seats. will i be allowed into the premiership with such a ground, and if so, will i be restricted to 600 capacity, and will the same rules apply in Europe. i'm having a ball with the vics, and dont want to start a new game, but it seems pretty silly to soldier on if the biggest crowd i can hope to get is 600, i'm already losing about 400k a month, so selling players and cup runs are the only way i survive, which is a great challenge, as i see it as more real life than if i had a big stadium making pots of cash every home game
i dont mean this to be a boast either, i am just wondering if anyone else has experienced this type of issue. cheers

I had a stadium around the same size when I was at Harrogate and crawled into the EPL.
It got expanded the 2nd EPL season.
but its not Northwichs ground, thats the thing, some other team Witton i think, actually own it
Nah, I think you'll have a problem on the income side, Witton will probably stay in the dungeons of English leagues so they will never expand the stadium, despite you probably can sell every place 10x.

Economics would suggest that you could sell each seat for ten times the price then. (Depending on elasticities and such).
Which branch of ecconomic theory would suggest this?
