England have dropped out of the top 10 in the world in the Fifa rankings list for the first time since June 2004.
Sven-Goran Eriksson's side fell four places to 11th after losing 4-1 in a friendly to Denmark and 1-0 in a World Cup qualifying tie in Northern Ireland.
The result lifts Lawrie Sanchez's side 15 places to 101st, while the Republic of Ireland are down seven to 21st.
Scotland are up 12 to 74th after taking four World Cup points from two games, and Wales move up one place to 82nd.
Brazil keep their top spot but Holland have jumped over Argentina in second place after World Cup qualifying wins over Armenia and Andorra.
Denmark (up four to 14th), Poland (up five to 17th) and Cameroon (up six to 22nd) are three of the other major winners in the latest list.

September 14, 2005, 1:59 pmHurricane Katrina - Let Us Not Forget!
September 6, 2005, 5:42 pm
It's been just over a week since the Hurricane struck yet people are still trying to come to their senses about the enormity of this disaster!
Perhaps the biggest the Modern World has seen!
We thought we had seen it all when the Tsunami struck Asia on Boxing Day 2004!
Is this a sign of what's too come! The Armageddon!
Perhaps it is closer than what we care to imagine!
Here are some interesting quotes:-
"This is one of the disasters that will test our soul, and test our spirits," - U.S. President George W. Bush.
"There are no jobs. There are no homes to go to, no hotels to go to, there is absolutely nothing here," New Orleans Deputy Police Chief Warren Riley says. "We advise people that this city has been destroyed, it has completely been destroyed."
"Recovery is going to take years. We need to help these Gulf Coast communities and, of course, the great city of New Orleans get back on their feet," former U.S. President George W. Bush tells a news conference. "The job is too big, too overwhelming for any one group."
"I try to be upbeat but it's devastating. I may lose my house because I may not be able to make my payments, and I don't know when I'm going to work again," - resident Mark Becker on returning to his devastated home.
