Frankly I'm a bit suspicious of all FIFA/UEFA draws

weren't Ivory Coast originally drawn in our group and then shifted because there was some reason tehy couldn't be? (I know - something to do wuith geographical split). And what was with Serbia & Montenegro being in a pot of their own? How was that determined? (I know THEY think it was a conspiracy).
