Latest FIFA Rankings
The latest FIFA Rankings are out, showing England slipping from 7th to 11th, while Scotland and Northern Ireland have both improved after victories over Norway and England respectively.
Once again, the interesting thing are the anomalies and the weirdnesses the ranking procedure throws up. Having beaten the mighty Pharoe Islands and scraped past the Republic of Ireland, France have moved up three places while the USA are still rated a better soccer team than either Portugal or Spain. Crazy.
For those that care about such things, you can view all the latest rankings here. But it's the last time you'll read about them on this blog.
