So I messed up. I had a Challenge Mode save going pretty well, but I noticed pretty early on that I couldn't shop players, but only in this save. It didn't bother me at first, but when the new shopping features were released, I wanted to try them out in this save. After some searching, I learned that it was because I had accepted a WCB manager spot and then resigned it, and that caused me to not be able to shop players throughout the entirety of the save. I saw that someone's workaround was to resign their position and take it up again. So I tried to do that... but after resigning, I can't get my position back. Rep isn't high enough/team doesn't want me. I made a template of the database used for that save and started it as a new game, but since I was part of the way through a season, the standings and all stats up to that point in the season are gone. So my question is twofold...

1. Is there a way to take the standings and stats from one Challenge mode database to another?

2. Is there a way to force myself to be the GM again of the team I had resigned from?

Thanks so much for any help. 900ish hours in and this is the first time I've messed up a save so badly.
