“Welcome to the Lions’ Den, temptation’s on his way. Welcome to the house of fun!”

And you thought there was already enough madness on Fuller FM!

Football Manager 2024 has been in beta – no, sorry, ‘Early Access’ – for a week-and-a-half now. For my first save on FM24, I will be taking charge of Millwall in the EFL Championship, with the aim of leading this unfashionable South London club into the Premier League. No one will like me, but I won’t care!

In this opening chapter, I will have a first look at the Millwall mob I have inherited from Gary Rowett, and our targets for the 2023/2024 season. But first, let me tell you a story…

You’ve bought and installed Football Manager. You’ve downloaded all those graphics mods and name fixes that Sports Interactive definitely don’t want you to use. You’ve kissed your partner goodbye and fed the cat…

…and now you’ve started a brand new save and added yourself as manager of your chosen club. What’s next?

Starting a new FM save can be daunting, especially if you’re new to the series. It can feel like there are hundreds of things to do before you even get into your first match.

Looking Ahead To Football Manager 2024 (And 2025)

Published on 3 July 20235 July 2026 by Chris Fuller

It’s fair to say that, for some people, Football Manager 2023 has not lived up to expectations.

Despite record sales, FM23 received plenty of criticism over its lack of exciting new features, and Sports Interactive’s apparent reluctance to fix some long-standing bugs. Long-time players, including myself, have begun to wonder if the series is stagnating.

But good news is on the way! Last week, SI put out a lengthy blog post in which studio director Miles Jacobson discussed “The Future of Football Manager”. This development update gives us some exciting details about Football Manager 2024, which will be released later this year… and even gives us a taste of what we can expect in Football Manager 2025!

So, what do the next 18 months have in store for us FMers?
