I bet we couldn't do that, not all the time we have a clown as manager :jester:

Of course we couldn't do that, San Marino aren't in our group. :)

Seriously though, if there was ever an argument for some kind of 'pre-qualifying' for weaker teams, this is it.

They are certainly the worst in Europe. The Vatican City would take that honour if they had a team. The Popes international commitments means they can never get a team together.

It still shocks me to this day, that they scored against us in less than 10 seconds.

On the last rankings, San Marino were 191st out of 205, not even the lowest European team as incredibly Luxembourg are below them.

Bottom are the footballing superpower that is Montserrat.

In fact, if you look at the list and work up from the bottom, there is an inverse relationship between exotic islands and how much you'd really quite like to spend a fortnight on holiday there, and their respective football world ranking.

Surely if you were to go and live on one of theese exotic islands and apply for citizenship you'd have a fair chance of getting in the team and playing international football even if you're only sunday league standard.

Except for the fact that I sure as hell wouldn't want to spend any time in Montserrat!

Anyway, its a f***ing JOKE having these pub teams in European qualifying groups. They should be having a preliminary round to pre-qualify for the group. Utter waste of everyones time stuffing these groups full of Andorras and San Marinos.

Gibrlatar have asked UEFA at their chances of being permitted to enter the next time round. There's not even a f***ing grass pitch there. I reckon the rock Apes stand a good chance of getting a game!
