I guess I could have put her at number seven,
but they want to be way too low.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
Yeah, well, Piney, I'm going to have to have a
worthy about how rankings work. You meant to put football
teams that win stuff ahead of football teams that lose,
so especially.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
You man Liverpool at nine.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
I know, but they won the Premier League a month ago.
All they did was lifted I get it, I get it.
And Malcolm's head, what do you mean finally, Pineyer? What
I meant was finally get to lift it because they
won it, like I say, with a month to spare,
but they don't hand it out till the end.

Speaker 4 (04:37):
Well, then, without wanting to go into what about is in?
What about Sunderland who only just got promoted to the
Premier League this weekend?

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Do you think they're a bit low?

Speaker 3 (04:48):
I think they're a bit low as well either way.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I mean, look, I understand, I understand what you're saying.
I just I feel like, you know, you need to
have a local focus in Piney's Power rankings. That's why
I got Auckland FC and the Warriors, both of who
lost their matches higher up the rankings than Sunderland and Liverpool.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Well, we can workshop this for the Pioneer, but bet.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Okay, look I'm taking it. Look, all feedback is a gift.
All feedbacks are getting this. You went slightly into touch,
all right, okay, but they are not available to rule
on Piney's Power rankings, but they will return next Monday night.
