Football Manager 1000 Years In The Future 

As someone from Newry, I did not expect to see Newry City beating Ballymena in an all Northern Ireland Champions League final in 2972

I like how Ben locks in on Slough... first thing I saw was lack of European spots, and that the EPL had dropped to 24th in the ranking list.

If we did a Part Two... what would you like to see?!

I'd love to see HITC Sevens do a video on the fall of Man City in 3022

18:45 I was waiting for so long for this to be noticed! Also you can also see the previous positions and see how much they’re changing year to year. The Danish league went from 1st to 15th from one season to the next. I think another big contributor to what happened is that because only England is loaded they’ve been the only ones building new giant stadiums. Like Barcelona are still at the Camp Nou with 105k capacity, so they’ve expanded but not built a 140k behemoth like many English teams have. So that stadium upkeep, especially once they aren’t packed anymore, is killing teams.

Regarding City, there needs to be a feature implemented where a club can vacate a stadium, or reduce capacity, due to not reaching anywhere near its capacity so that they can reduce overheads. City will constantly enter administration each year because the cost of the rent is more than their income that low down, so they'll never have youth facilities and won't be able to keep a team together.

Gladdens my heart to see Dixie still holding his 60 goal record

Blackburn going over 120 games, thats over 3 years, without being beaten...As a Leeds season ticket holder it also seems perfectly expected that we would be below Whitby I suspect City are being nuked by the £1M per year stadium rent

My word the new background looks outrageously good!

The new background looks really sleek Ben, great job

Small highlights I noticed, Icelandic(!) team Breiðablik win the champions league in the 2185/86 season and from what I saw were the smallest team a that point - and go on to become a force, when you view the league reputations the Danish 3F superliga went down to 15th after previously being 1st suggesting all leagues reputations are *very* volatile at that point

These are always class to see what happens with teams across Europe. I'm always intrigued to see the most obscure teams to have won a European trophy especially as makes for great viewing.

the idea of 98 thousand empty seats at Leeds home games is deeply sad

loved the vid and great to see you making content you enjoy ben :))

I miss your single team saves SOOO much. The comedy, the continuation, falling in love with the players, sticking to the same team, it was the best FM on RU-vid.

Like the Studio revamp Benjy!

Look at that streamer background, so professional and very pog looking

It would be good if you went through the teams you've managed in previous years and seeing how they've done in this save

Brann winning the champions leage was amazing to see, hopefuly we can get to the uecl playoff round today

Can you do a career mode with man city from this point

Absolutely love the new background setup

Maximum dedication and maximum workout for the computor u my friend are a saint winds me up waiting for 10 mins when i advance the start of a season to start unemployed nit sure how u managed to stay sane during this. Stay safe 👊

I came close with K.Adeyemi on scoring 57 goals in English Premier League after five seasons,i played with West Ham. It's fascinating to see that after 1000 years nobody scored 60+ to beat the record of Dixie Dean for most goals in a season (60) and we saw players payed 300 millions..

As a Evertonian the 800+ yrs was amazing im just glad u didnt mention us. Lol love the vid stay safe 👊 r u doing a serious on youtube or posting highlights of one.

love seeing my hometown of lowestoft making it to the big leagues fantastic content as usual

This was a great video keep up the good work

This was fun but would like to see you go into greater detail on a shorter one, like a 100 years but go through it year by year.

Love the new set-up/studio!

The Champions League winners gives me an idea about the UEFA coefficients. If you bumped up the coefficient to whatever the max spots would be for a random lower european league would they just start winning it after a short amount of time? Barca, Bayern, and the English teams not winning it anymore 1000 years in makes me believe just having the chance to start way further down into the tournament is a HUGE boon.

1000 years later, and Kidderminster Harriers finally get out of the National League North

Loving the new office Ben!

I was wondering as I started this video where my beloved Hatters would make an appearance. Didn't think it would be for the lowest points ever in a PL season with 1 and 37 league defeats...... I'm off to eat ice cream

I love that these teams are playing in stadiums the equivalent of a team now playing in something from the 13th Century!

That record breaking Palace season is 37 wins and 1 draw, basically just any team I challenge for the title then.

Lovin the background!

What a rebuild that city team would be!

How do you set up the home screen like that? With the picture of the stadium and things? Seen loads using this but I can't seem to get it. Love the look

Ben, I love these experiments! I think that the thing to keep in mind is that these time-frames are unimaginable for the human mind - it's impossible to think what football, even human life itself, will be like in even one hundred years time, never mind a thousand years! It's probably more likely for Man City to have dropped down a number of divisions than it is for them to have stayed at the top for that length of time. And you never know, maybe in one thousand years we'll have hover-boards and the Tories have evolved a conscience.

A decade and i feel sick... thousand? absolutely legend....

I love your backdrop Ben

that background looks so cool

I like that the stadium capacity at Peterborough is equivalent to almost half the current population of the city

As a City fan, seeing where Man City is in your savegame really made me chuckle and shake my head in disbelief. lolol WTF just happened there.

Jesus, the year 3022 and Northampton are still in League 2

The funniest thing in this is the highest attendance for a champions league game which is 140K for Crystal Palace v Atletico Madrid

class video tho ben! the background looks sexy a f!

I am from the netherlands. The eredivisie is my competition. If this comes true, that would be amazing. I Will be die for a very long time by then, but still just the idea is amazing lol.

Keith Alexander Arena. You love to see it.

Benjy, how many titles/trophies have Bristol City won? Just noticed they won League 2 in 3018/19.

Just knew you were going to click back onto the hour-long transfers page 😂

You also gotta take a look at the rep of the leagues and they all have 4,5 stars rep, so they're just the same all of them

Crazy to see the Swedish league being dominant with a number of Swedish champions league wins but never got a World Cup.

I loved how you mentioned that Scotland had only won 1 World Cup and that it was "a long time ago". The irony almost choked me ;-)

Cardiff being the first Welsh team to win the UCL, perfection.

That backdrop looks fucking unbelievable

Im so confused by the carrick thing, they must have won the FAI Cup, as they cannot even get promoted into the league system in Ireland

Nice video, can you share the save please ?

Just watching through, on the records page, it says Blackburn went on a 122 match undefeated streak, what i would give for that in RL

A Chelsea/Cardiff/Crystal Palace era... I didn't C that coming!!

Can you upload save to google drive or something like that so we can also explore save,thanks.

Kenya finished runners up in the World Cup once, that's pretty outrageous

Im more shocked Manchester City are in the Southern League rather than the Northern Premier League

How slow does the database run? Really wanna do a play through using a similar sized database

Please start a min save from this point on. So interesting.

I simed a carrer mode on fifa and after 13 seasons went to the bundesliga and Bayern II were 1st followed by Bayern

Seeing how the premier league has fallen from number 1 reputation league to number 24, is quite something.

Now let's make a database where all the teams start in the leagues they're in on this save. For science.

3 world cup wins and at least 3 wc finals reached for Iceland get in !!! We´ll take that

lovely to see my team Weymouth in championship.

Mind blown!!! my name is Adam Collins and I'm a man utd fan! 🤯🤯🤯

Semi Pro Bredalblik winning CL's in this universe too...

Please look at Northern Ireland in a potential Part 2. 4th most reputable league in Europe and I want to see what happened

any chance of a 10,000 year simulation?

Is it just me or did anyone notice how the eredivisie jumped 11 places to 1st on the best leagues?

You have arsenal the only big team that’s never been relegated from the first division and didn’t think to check how their last 1000 years was?

Show the competition reputations in the next video

City Goal difference -130, did they even use 11 players

west ham and if they ever bought the london stadium!

Ah I haven’t seen an FM RU-vidr do something like this in a few days great stuff

How long did it take to simulate?

Viktoria plzen? 71 times? Ok no words

Did you see how many Chinese players QPR and Chelsea have?

Wow what an achievement for Macclesfield who went bankrupt in 2020

How long did it take to simulate 1000 years?

go for a part two btw i am bulgarian !

QPR with 10 chinese players is interesting lol

When you hit the back button!!!! 😂

Can we get the save file?

Can someone pls explain to me how to sim 100 or 1000 years in the future pls i need this

As a Lutonian I feel I'm within my right to say "WTF HAS HAPPENED TO LUTON!?!"

City paying 900k per year in stadium rent might have something to do with their financial trouble.

Premier League being the 24th top division in the world is kinda mental

Yay CPFC won lots of trophies and had a season with 37 wins! If only....

I like how it says Liverpool will win the league this season. I highly doubt that.

Usually Chelsea are pretty poor on these types of videos, not this time

Nice to see Shane Long is still the fastest goal scored. At 9 seconds

Can we see the Eredivisie

is there a way we can get this save file?

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS

The prem is the 24th best league in the world in this save
