Answers to frequent questions/comments - will update if needed.
1. Who are you?
My name is Eduard Rănghiuc. I'm a Christian, husband of an amazing women and father of three wonderful kids. I'm also a programmer. Born in 1981 in Iasi, Romania - still living here.
2. Do you have a Facebook account?
No. I do use Twitter though: @FootballRanks. You can also find me on LinkedIn.
3. How many points would team X have in the FIFA ranking if... ?
Feel free to use FIFA's ranking prognosis tool to get an answer.
You can also post a comment with your question - I happen to have some very knowledgeable readers that will answer your question faster than me.
4. I want to see where my team is ranked in the UEFA National Coefficient after the last matches and I can't wait until Friday.
There are several sites on the internet posting updates: World-Results.Net, Football World Rankings. Also, see the last part of the previous answer.
5. Your probable results are wrong/laughable etc.
They are based on the Elo ratings not on personal opinion.
6. Send me an e-mail when you post something new or reply to my comment.
It would be better to subscribe to the posts and comments feed to keep track of when/what I write.
7. Do you work for FIFA?
No, I don't and I don't expect they will make an offer any time soon.
8. Could you help my team climb in the rankings?
Yes, but tell them to contact me.
9. Did you ever receive money to help a team climb in the ranking?
No, never. Although I wouldn't mind :)
10. Could you post updates more frequently?
No, I only post articles, reply to comments on Friday. I do have a job and a family - the blog is just a hobby.
11. How much money does this blog bring you?
The ads you see on my blog are displayed for free - so I make no money from my blog.
12. I represent a betting company and we could offer you a nice sum of money to display some of our ads.
Thanks, I have to pass as it would go against my Christian faith.
13. I have a sport related site, how about a link exchange? It will increase the number of visits you get etc.
I get enough visits and I have a policy - I won't post a link to your page if I don't visit it regularly.
14. I have a domain for sale - it's an amazing opportunity to expand your online footprint.
What is that? No, thanks.
15. Why don't you rate Botswana? (replace with other team if needed)
It's not about me rating a team or not. There's a formula behind the rankings.
16. I don't like you.
That's OK.
