They probably wont be granting you a release since you are the starter.
Note to everyone - I am interested in having at least 2, possibly 3 GMs to help me out. I have already had one interested prospect contact me. I also offered one position to BuzzMD, because he financed the team.
That means there is one (maybe two) spot(s) open. If you're interested, PM me here or on GLB.
Also, set your players to train on relaxed. In most cases, the attribute gain is minimal, and the money savings are well worth it. You will need $10k for level 8 equipment upgrades.
I signed everyone to minimum salaries for this season. The money doesn't do a whole lot for you, so it's not that big of a deal. But if we were to put the team in the red, and not come out quickly, they will take it away.
Because of that, I was cautious when offering salaries. You will be able to afford training on relaxed with no problem, and that's basically your only cost until level 8.
