Obviously it is entirely unofficial, and the author doesn't claim complete reliability, but can this guy be correct in his calculation of the latest Seeding positions?

As you may imagine, I wouldn't be too disappointed to have them confirmed

Anyone able to offer an opinion? Eirebhoy?

There's no way Sweden can be in the third pot, surely. I'd question their reliability based on that alone.

Just for the curiosity I put an excel together. I come out with 740 for Ireland after the Wales match. 3 points different to that site. EalingGreen, if you're as sad as me you could do the same for Northern Ireland and work out their ranking. It's only a couple of days wait anyway.

Anyway, here's the file for anyone that wants to see how the points are calculated:

England dropped back into 2nd seeds...lost out by 1 coefficient point!
What a disastrous week for them.

...and Liectenstein didn't make it out of the bottom pot afterall.

Woh. England had 1113 points, Greece 1114. That's very cruel.

I doubt many of us will be crying many tears for them, though

I'll say, my blog reached even Ireland

I really don't want to brag, but I can't help it. Seems I was right, isn't it?
