Netherland went up to top spot and England up 2 places despite not even playing. Shows what shit these ratings are.

Yeah apparently, someone England moved above Brazil and Uruguay despite only playing two games and drawing them both, it's not as if Uruguay had won the copa or anything though?

Hopefully the only way is up!!!
Obviously it does reflect our run of recent poor performances and I suppose the stats are there to be read!!

If Wales played teams around them in the rankings we'd shoot up. We could easily batter everyone. How have Holland gone above Spain? Have they forgotten the world cup final last year?

Come on, Wales to be that low in the rankings is a disgrace! We have 3-4 fantasic players in the first team who surley make a wales a bit higher? Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey, Craig Bellamy, James Collinson?? A bit embarassing

The U21's are better than some teams above us, the rankings make no sense.

We really do need to play a few friendlies against the likes of Mali, Benin Botswana etc, that are 30 odd places above us. Wins against them would see us climb up to a slightly more respectable position. Who knows we might even be on a par with the Cape Verde Islands

Central African Republic????
These rankings are a complete joke but they are something FIFA stands by when they're seeding teams for tournaments, which is bad news for us

i dont kknow why we are all moaning, i know exactly how the rankings are worked out, its purely results not the players(which it should be) and we have only won one or two in the last 20.
no matter how good we think we are we havent got the results to shoot us up. one win, even in a friendly will put us up 10-20 places

Makes me laugh mind, Iraq: a war-torn country. Haiti: recently effected by a natural disaster, North Korea: Crazy government. There's even a country more or less called Surname, where's that ffs?
A very low point in welsh football but surely now, the only way is up!

This is the exact reason we should play shitty teams in friendlies! Get the points on the board and that will help our ranking that will help our seeding for qualifiers.

The rankings need to regionalised with say a top 10 for World rankings only
Thu Aug 25, 2011 12:39 pm
Truely is embarrassing.
