I've been in the process of simulating a game for a few years and seeing how things turn out. After 5 season I now can't load the game and OOTP crashes when it gets to initializing database (stops at 10%). I auto save the game every game month but this doesn't help as the file seems to be corrupted in same way. This has led me to think about the auto saving options. I also play FM which has a much greater depth of options for auto saving, including using multiple files which would help me in this situation. I'm aware this may not be possible because of the way the files are structured. If not, could we have an option to automatically back-up the game every so often (otherwise I will just have to remember to do this manually in future!)
EDIT: Just looked at the folder structure and realised there is an auto-save folder in there so it appears it already has this functionality. Keep up the good work guys
