i have a small suggestion.

the cup match should be played without home advantage and at the team with the larger stadium. with this feature i think the smaller teams would have a reason to play in the cup and win some games.....

I agree.
When you play a cup, you arrive to small stadium on away games (mostly, with H,G teams), you have a huge loss of money.
The idea which kennyanu presents has more +:
- no home advantage - just a power of team will influence the result
- nice income - team having bigger stadium (let's say better team or team from much higer division) won't have such a loss of money and the smaller team (H,G) will have nice financial injection by sharing 50% tickets (for example 150k when arriving on 20k stadium).

I go in the cup on the field of FC team, which ended yesterday as human team. I will have insane loss on players' salary, so I agree with kenny (even he defeated me today in the league)

i'm agree too.
it is more natural that all that pipkin say to happen

How is home advantage in SP Cup determined? Is it random?

I think it's realistic the way it is now-- in the FA Cup, for example, the lower division teams get their chance to host one of the big clubs and they ought to have home field advantage. Sure the two teams won't get as much gate receipts, but that's realistic.

A premier league side playing in a 10,000 capacity 3rd division stadium isn't going to make very much money, either.

you are in H division...lets say you play with me in the next round....i have -250k(more or less 30k) after the game....and you will have benefit of 30k

but if you play on my ground you would have benefit 130k(more or less 40k). what do you prefer?

and i asked the home ground should not be a advantage so the lower teams should have a small advantage.

Good idea sounds fair to all parties involved.

As I told before, I played on FC team's field today, having loss of 200k €...
If this game would have been played on my stadium, 396k € could have been divided between the teams and I wouldn't have such loss..
Kenny's idea is applicable and fair..

I agree too.This is a good ideea.makes the cup more atractive also

I also believe is a very good ideea

i've made a poll....pls vote maybe this way we will be more convincing...

if its not a huge thing...i would like that anyone who votes say here that they voted

I voted"yes",the idea is really good.

hm...another idea goes to weste....

You're a pretty prominent figure within the SP community (at least I assume so) so why don't you ask some of the Romanian community to post and back this idea up. With a lot of support coming from the Romanian community I'm sure it would increase chances of it coming to fruition.

And what do you want us to say? The idea sounds good, I didn't heard anyone opposing it. So I don't really know how can we support it because there is noone to argue against.

The best thing is Sjarel to write here what he thinks about the idea.If he says such an implementation is absolutely impossible,we all won't be hoping in vain...
