Is This The Most Likely Story For England?
‘England will be certainly knocked out of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa’ that’s according to FIFA .
‘It will probably be at the quarter final stages and the England third raters will be defeated on penalties, probably by Germany, Portugal or Argentina’ he continued.
In a swift rebuttal , FA Chief of something or other Sir Trev Brooking dismissed this claim.
‘I am sick and tired of FIFA casting aspersions on our national squad’ said Mr Brooking
He added ‘everyone knows we won’t even qualify in the first place.

Who Has The Most Difficult And Who Has The Most Easy Group In World Cup 2010?
Looking at the World Cup groups, and being a geek, I’ve worked out the average opposition ranking for all the highest ranked teams in their respective world cup groups. Obviously this exercise is erroneous in many respects as everyone would be sure that North Korea will find Group G more difficult than Brazil will. So I’ve compared the average opposition ranking for all the highest ranked teams in their groups to show which ‘BIG’ team has the least excuse to go out in the first round. ![]()
Also, remember that these group difficulties are only as true as the FIFA World Cup Rankings, but seeing as these decided the seedings of the draw, we might aswell use them!
AOR (Average Opponent Ranking)
Group A – France – AOR = 40th
Group B – Argentina – AOR = 29th
Group C – England – AOR = 25th
Group D – Germany – AOR = 26th
Group E – Netherlands – AOR = 27th
Group F – Italy – AOR = 47th
Group G – Brazil – AOR = 35th
Group H – Spain – AOR = 24th
This means that, in order, top to bottom, of most easy group to most difficult it goes -
Italy
France
Brazil
Argentina
Netherlands
Germany
England
Spain
I reckon this just proves that Maths has NO place in football, as I would say the group of death is easily Group G, and the group of…erm… easy, is Italys.
If we take into account the ‘seeds’ ranking aswell, we get a very clear picture of the difficulty of the group ‘overall’ for all the teams.
Group ‘H’ = Group of Death with average ranking of 19th.
Group F = Easiest group with average ranking of 36th.
I would say the only reason for Brazil, Portugal, Ivory Coast and North Korea not being the mathematical group of death is because North Koreas ranking is so low (84th) that it drags the average right down. As it would be an average of 7th without them.

What Is The Most Overrated Football (soccer) League In The World?
Some say Italian, some say Spanish, some say Argentinian ! People have many opinions about the best football league there is, in my eyes the German Bundesliga & Italian Serie A are definitely the best and most enjoyable, but on the other hand i find the English Primer League to be with no doubt, the most overrated league on earth, slow, boring, not really interesting, and gets all that attention! For what?
Don’t get me wrong now, i believe that the top English clubs are very strong, but that does not make the Primer League interesting.
What do you think? Which football league is the most overrated of all?
