    That kills the latest LOI diehard argument that "ZOMG players from the LOI are getting selected for higher ranking national teams!!!" then.

    Good old FIFA rankings. What i do is mix and match them with the Elo ratings rankings and come up with a general idea on how we are doing compared to other countries. Although they both have their flaws.

    Scroll down to find the current rankings.

    At least now 99% of the population don't have to feel embarrassed anymore.

    Let's celebrate the fact that we've reserve team players starting for the Republic of Ireland.

    People who go to football in their own country are 'diehards' now?

    BTW, I note from the rankings that some players from LoI teams, such as BFC, are getting selected for teams that are of roughly equal status to ROI, such as Lithuania.

    What's Lithuanian for barstool?

    Yawn, no more complaining about the same arguments going on over and over again when you're the one starting them.
