Sadly my save game wouldn't open for my silence-lotto story so I am going to do a story on Team Halfords instead (that won't crash hopefully). Hope you enjoy. |

Those stats are so incorrect it's amusing. I suppose it's all to do with how the are relative to everyone else in the DB, but still. Good luck. I think you'll need it.

Check your staff and the salaries they are on. If you have any highly paid trainers, physios or doctors sack them now.  |

You need to get out of negative money, and if you don't I presume you'll get sacked. So start winning a lot of sprints!

I'm pretty sure you get money for winning races at the end of the year. Don't you??? |

You also need to sack your staff. There'll be a big minus every month, and with a team like Halfords you have no chance of clearing the debt. You also can't hire new staff, because you have no money. With a small team part of the fun is training new talents - this you can't do.
Way I see it, you have two options.
1. Restart
2. Edit you finances. I haven't done this since PCM06, but I can't see any reason why you can't open the save and give yourself a cash injection. |
