LOL

Some amount of knee jerk sh*te tonight
I know, it’s so bloody irritating. Kenny’s has 2 games and a few training sessions. Ridiculous some of the comments.

Seedings Update after 1st Round of Nations League:

Just one game last night involving the teams in the mix for the 2nd Pot.

Iceland were beaten by England. Thus the former dropped 4.8 points.



So, on completion of one round of Nations League games, the relevant seedings are as follows:



17 Serbia 1486.2
18 Turkey 1485.4
19 Rep of Ireland 1484.5
20 Slovakia 1481.9
------------------------
21 Russia 1477.8
22 Northern Ireland 1476
23 Romania 1475
24 Iceland 1460.2


It's good news for us that Turkey, Serbia and Russia are in the same Nations League group. In every single round two of those three will play each other, and so they'll keep taking points off each other.
Today it's Serbia against Turkey. 

We've had some very favourable results in the first round, with most of the teams around us slipping up. But we need to start picking up points.
A win needed today against Finland.

Reading your posts earlier Rolo so that’s a good result for our rankings ya ? 
NI were very good playing with 10 men for 50mins

See the post above yours.

Didnt see NI game.

I was watching Slovakia v Czech Rep in first half then Italy Bosnia in second half.

Slovakia are beatable, Bosnia would be very tough if we make it to the final.
Cheers for that. All Good

Very tight between Ireland the teams around us.

Just a further update to emphasise the importance of these Nations League games for the World Cup seedings:

If Ireland beat Finland, thats a gain of 6.1 points.
A draw and we drop 1.4 points.
Lose and we drop 8.9 points.

Seeding - Team - FIFA Ranking points

20 Rep of Ireland 1486
------------------------
21 Northern Ireland 1476
22 Romania 1475
23 Russia 1470
24 Iceland 1465


Duffy's equaliser meant we only dropped 1.5 points, rather than 9.
Russia beat Serbia; a gain of 7.8 points for Russia, a loss of 7.8 for Serbia.
Turkey lost to Hungary. A loss of 8.6 points for Turkey.
The others above didnt play last night.


So that group of teams after last night's matches now look like this:

17 Slovakia 1490
18 Serbia 1486.2
19 Turkey 1485.4
20 Rep of Ireland 1484.5
------------------------
21 Russia 1477.8
22 Northern Ireland 1476
23 Romania 1475
24 Iceland 1465


Very tight. We'd be out of the top 20 now if we had lost last night.
slovakia losing 2-0 to Czechs so they could fall behind us

The North play Romania later so we'll see movement for both of those most likely.




A win for either will give them 7.5 points, and the other will lose 7.5 points. A draw in that game will see both of them take 0 points from the game. That wouldn't be the case in other drawn games (teams gain and lose points in a drawn game) but in that match both teams would take 0 in the event of a draw.


So a draw there would be best for us.
