Last night I was going through BigSoccer.com, and noticed someone had a link to a poker thread in his .sig, so naturally I took the opportunity to mention this site.

Hey Tony, are you a soccer fan too? This site could use some more soccer fans on it. Between bigsoccer and this site, it is amazing that I get anything done.

So it is a running joke all over the world. Talk about football (soccer) with a Briton and within 2 minutes they will say "we invented the game".

yes, but we did..... its not a joke, its a FACT.

no, 5th is the highest our National team has ever been ranked. We will be 5th until Germnay kicks our ass on Wednesday. They are sending their A-team for that game and we are sending our B-team.

Also, the FIFA ranking are completely meaningless. Realistically we are closer to 20th than 1st.
