Looking at whats happened so far... my best advice here to you is...

TANK THE SEASON. Your in a rubbish league position with things not going your way, how about playing illegal formations with your players playing out of position and just wait until next season for a fresh start?

Sometimes awkward results can occur and I think sometimes its best to miss out on promotion for a season and you can have another go at winning the title next season, plus you also save on tokens and boosters.
