This is unfortunately not at all true. After winning their first ever game 1-0 against the British Virgin Islands, they have proceeded to lose every game since, with the exception of 3 drawn games (against Bahamas, Turks & Caicos Islands and non-FIFA team Saint-Martin). They have never beaten BVI 3-0, like you have mentioned. If you check the FIFA match list, this is confirmed. They do not regularly beat CONCACAF competition - this is completely untrue. One victory in all time hardly constitutes regularity. On another note, in the Montserrat section - you describe CONCACAF as FIFA's weakest confedration. I believe that the OFC is much weaker than CONCACAF. Their best side is New Zealand, and they hardly compare favourably with the top sides of CONCACAF.
