image for Engand football team move to third in world rankings
The three Lions are now third! Not long to wait for the top spot!!

Wembley HQ, England: With Team GB consolidating their third position in the Olympic tables, now it is time to shout a big "Hurrah" for the England Football team, who are third best at infighting, shagging each others wife's, getting boo'ded at by their own fans
and serial under achievement.

We are also third best team in the FIFA World rankings due to Roy Hodgson and the exhilarating brand of football that was introduced at the 2012 Euro Championshipss. Hopefully nobody associated with Team ENGLAND will be resting on their laurels now the England Footbal team have reached these rarefied heights! Bring on the 2014 World Cup, because this news will send a shiver down the collective spines of Spain, Germany, Holland and Brazil!

Roy Hodgson, what a manager! Third already, just another couple of mediocre draws during the qualifying rounds, a few more quarter-final exits and England should be first! A penalty shoot out loss should definitely see England move into first place! Come on England, you can do it!

Some have questioned the FIFA rankings system, could it be that a team moves up one place, if they turn up to a match. Move up two places, if they kick the ball. Move up three places, if the team makesg it to half time. Move up four places, if the team turns up for the second half. Move up five places, if the team makes it to 90 minutes. Move up ten places, if the team scores a goal!

The FIFA rankings system, may have been a combination of French altruism and when what happens when you do everything in the metric system. If the FIFA World rankings were converted to the Imperial system, England may come out 57th, somewhere between Honduras and the Congo.

To think that Liverpool Football Club fired Roy Hodgson as their first team coach and Manager, the man who has now catapulted England into being the third best team in the world. How Liverpool Football Club must be kicking themselves!!

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
