FIFA Rankings

Didn't know whether to put this in the funny picture thread or not -

I did cut and paste the URL, but only to make the image smaller, it is the genuine URL. I'm sure at FIFA there is a kid on work experience or something let loose with a computer and this is what he created for a joke. :o

I would have put the team listed number 4 in the joke thread :)

Heard this on the local radio yesterday and was frankly astonished whilst thinking Sepp Blatter was having a laugh.

The FIFA co-efficients are weighted so that they make little sense to anyone who isn't enjoying the benefits of FIFA's remarkably, errr, generous approach to hospitality. Just like virtually everything else they do, it is a sham. It would be nice to say that they don't matter but they are used to determine seedings for qualifiers amongst other things.
