    Scots close in on England ranking

    Scotland are on the verge of overtaking England after rising to their highest position in the Fifa world rankings.

    Despite their 2-0 loss in Georgia, the Scots have moved from 14th to 13th - two places behind England, who fell to 11th from ninth after losing to Russia.

    The top nine teams will be seeded for the 2010 World Cup qualifying rounds.

    Appallingly, however, I went to see Runrig last night who, as their last song (after Loch Lomond - I mean, wtf?!) sang a chorus of "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot". FFS!

          "And their position could improve further if the Scots beat world champions Italy in their final Euro 2008 qualifier on 17 November, a match they must win to reach the finals next year. "



          Not really, again



          Oh please stop it!!!!!

          I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

            i really hope scotland qualify, good luck..

            what confuses me is how the argies are placed higher than brazil? brazil beat them 3-0 to win the Copa America, and outperformed them in the WC.

              I guess since Scotland never really believed they would get this far, every day is a bonus...well played to them I say.
