The home side in any game is also given additional levels to allocate between his outfield areas (NOT GK or SW), simulating the lifting effects of a home crowd on their side. The number of levels available for each match depends upon the present session (Basic HAD) and the relative positions in the League of the two teams involved (Bonus HAD). The exact number of HAD levels available for a game is just the Bonus HAD plus the Basic HAD added together.

The Basic HAD Levels available for each session are:-

• If the teams involved are in the same Division then the difference between their League positions at the beginning of the session produces the following Bonus HAD.
• If the teams are from different Leagues or one team is from the Non-League then the Bonus HAD is 4.
• If the teams are from different Divisions but in the same League then the Bonus HAD is (1 + Difference in

Divisions).
