The funniest rankings shenanigans is still the time that Poland stopped playing friendlies because even winning a friendly carried a lower weight than qualifier games, so they realized that they could be pot 1 for 2018 by not playing anybody. And then because they hadn't really played together as a team in so long they managed to finish last in an easy group.

(i think this was around the time fergie recalled a player from peterborough when his son was sacked as manager) someone asking neil warnock if premier league managers only loaned out players to other managers they liked, and he replied “well no-one ever loans me players, so yeah maybe”

Was it Newcastle where the director of football or manager was at a game and really liked the look of a player on one of the teams and asking for info on them, ballpark for a fee etc. not realising it was a Newcastle player who they’d loaned out?

Speaking of funny football poo poo, I think that season started with Keegan in charge of Newcastle and ended with Shearer. What a time to be alive.
