Although quite decent results through season, my bosses decided it´s time to change some new and I have been sacked
What now?
Luckily I expected it could happen and made a copy before. Now I have three options.
1) "little cheat" - edit satisfaction of sponsors in save file and continue with same team
2) let it be, worse things could happen, and sign contract with another team
3) finish my story, because it´s bullshit
pls vote! |

I think you should do whatever you are happiest with. I know that if I started a story with one team, I don't think I'd be happy to be kicked off that team.

I think you should edit your save file. Anyways, it's pretty much easy to get sacked when managing a small team. I'm having a season with Colombia es Pasión, and even not having but 16 riders, any of them good, sponsors only get happy by doing heroic deeds. I mean, I have even been able sometimes to beat guys like Fedrigo, Chavanel, Mosquera and others, even with my best riders being Henao, Duarte and Laverde (all of them AVG. 68), and even so these damn sponsors are just slightly happy (one satisfaction star).
It's half season, my sponsors aren't happy and my team is exhausted, having an average of 55 races each (I've had to race a lot of stage races and Colombia es Pasión don't have but 18 riders). But if I get sacked, I won't doubt about editing the game. I mean, that isn't even cheating, in real life sponsors would be in heaven if you manage to take such a team and win some small european races.
I remember PCM Spain database for PCM 07. Sponsors were like oh, my god, we are extremely happy, we will give you 5 stars, after having a 30th position in the smallest and most unknown race of Asia. That was ridiculous. But now it is kind of the opposite! You have to take your little CT team and win PT races just to have +3 stars.
So imo, edit your savegame without any remorse. Anyways, your story is kind of fun.

I think it would be more fun if you continue with another team, more realistic you know. but that is just my opinion |

Both options are quite tempting - On side of the coin is that your heart was devoted to the tema for whole season and now you would be gone and on the other side it is not exactly fair to edit Db just becaus your sponsors are crazy. I would choose another continental team on your place but it´s your call...B) |

Just cheat a little if you really want to continue with the team, and my experince with chancing team is that you just get another team with bad sponsor conifdence, and a ridicuisly low budget next season.

On a general note, I always edit a game if I feel something isn't fair. The whole deal about sponsor satisfication is a bit weird since it doesn't seem like there's anything to do about it (pre career) - so if I have problems with it, I just edit it in the save game. |

Thank you all for your comments
I will continue with another Continental team, I´m now seeking most suitable one and after editing DB will continue in my career (well, it´s a bit "cheating", but it´s necessary )
my experince with chancing team is that you just get another team with bad sponsor conifdence, and a ridicuisly low budget next season.
is it possible to avoid this problem?
