If you can be really arsed, you can holiday the first season over and over again until they get promoted.
There used to be a challenge every year on the sigames forum where you managed the team who came up and try to get as high as possible. The game who made it used to upload saves each with different teams promoted. I remember cos I did one with Skelmersdale cos it’s close (and a shit hole) and was glad he did the hard work for me.
Edit: here you go
