The UK is an island, so there is no switchover. But in other places where it changes, yeah there’s a big junction where the roads switch sides.

Rafa has the slam lead but Novak has a load of the other big records, so I think ND is slightly ahead for me as well. It’s great that the two of them are mid 30s and still going!

That’s really incredible given that he’s had a whole load of injuries.

UEFA changed their rules a while back I think after Gibraltar joined, so only sovereign countries can join now. The existing members like Wales, England, Faroes etc are fine. I think Greenland are trying to join CONCACAF instead, but they also have members like French Guiana who aren’t in FIFA, so we currently don’t know if they’ll be allowed to participate or not.

And got to the quarter final in the last 20 years. They’re not bad at international level just not one of the very top teams.

It’s technically still wrong for this map though, because they have their own CONCACAF-affiliated national team. Not a member of FIFA though.

So are the Faroe Islands and they have their own team. There’s talk every now and then of Greenland joining FIFA or UEFA/CONCACAF but nothing seems to get done about it. Plus as they’re not a country I don’t think they’re actually allowed to join any more.
