Debate - World footy rankings 2008 - Peace Team, Great Britain and Catalonia

Tricky things this. Here´s my go.

GB - Should be viewed as GB on a world rankings list, as they only compete as Wales, England and Scotland on a European basis. If this was a Euro-ranking, then let them be seperate. On a world scale, they compete as one and should be weighed as one.

Spain/Cat - IC will and should never see two rep sides from the same country (Is GB considered a country??). On a world scale and in a world competition the Cat's will be viewed as Spanish citizens, so "Spain" would be the logically choice here. Untill the Spanish are actually a better and more active side than the Cat's, maybe put the nation down as "Spain (Cat)".

Peace Team - Hard thing.
Is footy still active there?
Any programs/leagues coming?
Any weekly fixtures??
Weekly trainings?
Would they be able to organise a rep side, if the Peres Center wasnt behind them?
Untill they (the area) is represented by a sporting federation for Australian Football, I dont view them as actually a rep side. Dont know if they should be included. If they were to be. Rank them as one, as independently they probably couldnt get a side up and running (and these rankings are for countries only who can put on and fully fledged IC team)

If we take some guide from Rugby League - - Great Britain ought to be split. Peace Team - - - well, not quite Lebanon - - - but, certainly that an active number of clubs at least should be required.

On that note, is Nauru organised again yet?

Catalonia - - - if we want to just boost numbers to make it look good, then Catalonia get counted stand alone (and GB are split).

The ruling must be with respect to the football played - and if Catalonia play stand alone - - then, really, that's all that matters. For now.
