Well I've got a 35000 stadium and I sell it out every week so you should definitely upgrade. I searched around for some info a while ago and found this thread:

Attendance varies in this game depending on your form/weather. Bizarrely the attendance is terrible at the start of the season, when you would think it would be a sell out??
I wouldn't go over 50k in Div 5.

Ive seen this table being thrown around abit here. Its what your base attendance should be around for each division.

Div 1 - 60,000
Div 2 - 54,000
Div 3 - 48,000
Div 4 - 42,000
Div 5 - 36,000

I've always ran a 2 TE set offense and have had decent success with it. Worked pretty well lower in Division 5 especially. What that formation consisted of was (if your not too familiar with the game):

WR1-TE1-LT-LG-C-RG-RT-TE2-WR2
--------------QB-------------
-----------------------------
--------------HB-------------

On the defense I just run a normal 4-3 defense, which looks like:

------LDE--RDT--LDT--LDE------
--LOLB--------MLB-------ROLB--
CB1------------------------CB2
---------SS--------FS---------

Thats just what I run however, there are loads more formations you can run and to suit your squad better. My advice would be to look at what formations the teams in the top divisions run and see how they do it. For instance,this is what one of the best teams in Gridiron, the Badgers, run.

I'd also advice reading the Please read this before you do anything thread in the Centre for Rookies section of the community forums. Will greatly help you in understanding the finer points of the game and player development.
