rank rankings

If you think that FIFA's team rankings are a joke, compare them to these much more realistic rankings (scroll about 40% of the way down).

Apparently FIFA are rejigging their rankings system shortly after the world cup. Among other things they are going to reduce the period over which rankings are calculated, from 8 years to 4, and juggle the regional values. It sounds like it will enable teams to move up and down the ratings a bit faster, but it will be interesting to see whether the results are any more accurate...
