Totally mate, whether or not these ranking are meaningless is meaninlgess.

Any excuse we exciles have to rip the p*ss out of them is greatly received.

Was an exile for many, many years so know how you guys feel but i really couldn't give 2 hoots how they do.

As long as we do the business I'll be happy.

Besides the more money that gets pumped into the english game the worse their national team will get.
