FIFA Rankings

[Sir Norman Gull]

England up 2 places to 4th!! overtaking Brazil-Why? FIFA seem to have it wrong throughout their organisation including rankings. After our recent miserable below par performances how can we be 4th best in the world?The others must be worse than we thought!

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

4th best team in the world Yeah, alright.

 

[big nuts]

Scotland must be about 8th then?

Scotland not even in the top 50 bellow Iran, who the hell comes up with this crap

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Presumably we bunged good old Sepp a brown envelope to get that ! Ludicrous - I doubt the reality is that we're top 15.

 

[Sir Norman Gull]

We scrape a draw at home against Switzerland and go up 2 places and Switzerland with a creditable away draw drop 4 places-obvious!

There isn't a great deal of difference in terms of ability between Scotland and Iran in all honesty.

 

[bhafc99]

Total joke. We're not Top Ten, let alone 4th.

 

[Twinkle Toes]

Crock o' shite (much like the England team).

 

[New Carpet?]

4th in the World?

That's ridiculous.

Here's some more of what may be regarded as out-of-place placings:

• Greece - 12th
• Montenegro - 16th
• Paraguay - 32nd
• Ghana - 33rd
• Czech Republic - 36th
• Burkina Faso - 37th (ahead of African giants Nigeria, South Africa and Cameroon)
  

And Wales joint 114th with the footballing empire that is the Faroe Islands

 

[Scotty Mac]

isn't this based on recent results over the last four years? in which case, our form under capello for world cup qualifying would be taken into account and the fact that we are still unbeaten so far in qualifying for the euros

it is, obviously, complete bollocks

 

[Mendoza]

We are back down to a more respectable 8th

despite winning two games
