Stadiums is a very messy bit of english.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Says who? Merriam-Webster and dictionary.com claim that both stadia and stadiums are correct. I prefer stadiums over stadia any day when referring to sports arenas, because a stadia is also some telescopic instrument that I don't quite understand how it works, but never mind about that.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

These are both American-English dictionaries. I'm with LFCfan on this one.

I have the opposite problem with stadia. A lot of the time I can't fill a ground, and the board waste my hard-earned money on increasing it further.

Happened a lot in Brazil in 01/02, and SI tweaked it in the first patch to make it less likely but even then you'd get 10000 seats added when you weren't at capacity to start with.

In LLM, it is cheating. In fact, it is cheating no matter how you look at it. You tried to gain an advantage by doing something outside the game.

No. you didn't have the funds to improve the stadium. Therefore, you couldn't get the capacity.

Ergo, you don't get promoted. That is the RL rules and that is what the game emulates. The game is unintelligent by default as it just a bunch of code.

If you're not interested in following the LLM rules, then we're not interested in hearing what you have done.

LFCfan speaks wisely.

I don't have CM4, but in CM3 stadium expansion costs serious money. £500k would not have cut it.

CM01/02 would cost about £1,000 per seat. Didn't mean too much when you went up into the 3rd, because the board would just expand the standing area, which was pretty cheap by comparison.
