I won't be holding my breath on our rankings rising with the group we have at the Euros!

the way the rankings work, all we need is a couple of half decent results and we would prob be in the top 15.

Its a funny old one lads. I think if we put a good show in at the Euros it will be a fair jump.

I reckon the Republic could surprise quite a few people at the Euros in the same way as the Greeks did some years ago!
Also, now that we Hounds of the North are firmly bracketted with Antigua, St Lucia, Grenada, etc. we must be considered a shew in for the Windward Islands championship. After winning that, the way the FIFA rankings work we will probably find ourselves promoted into the World top 20!
