Looks to be based in part on xG so to be fair we’re probably over-ranked! Thank god they don't count corners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashton_fan Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Gas are 596th (just behind Cheltenham) so we're nearly 200 places above them. I think they need to refine their algorithm though as clearly out of step with reality in some cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleeping giants, big city, no other local rivals etc etc We haven’t seen a newspaper article about our ‘potential’ for at least two weeks. Another is due very soon.

Harry Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 8 hours ago, The Bard said: Those rankings make no sense at all. On the one hand recent form seems massively important (eg Chelsea 4th best in the world - they're arguably not even 4th best in England). On the other Athletico Madrid are 13th, (behind Real Sociedad!) despite being 6 points clear in La Liga. How on earth are Bayern not number 1? PSG have just comfortably beaten Barcelona but are miles below them. Brighton are better than AC Milan Fulham better than Valencia What a load of bs There’s only one way to sort this out. A World League. 24 teams each. We’d be starting in World League Division 18. Looking for promotion to Division 17, we’re up against those on the pic below. An interesting matchup vs Willem. Lengthy away trips to China, Japan, Australia & USA. Shortest trip to Peterborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 The least attractive game is Peterborough let's be honest. A mate of mine worked as a Social worker in Peterborough for 3 years.

I'm absolutely on board with that. ....... Ponferradina is also basically the swindon in our league, in that best reason for living there is the fact it is close to a lot of cool places.
