The British Isles should form their own confederation
And demand 4.5 spots, lets face it, Rep Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales would do more then Asias 4.5 spots, and Northern Ireland can play off with Australia, can't see a problem with it myself.

I quite like it, though I reckon we'd still find a way of losing, this time to Northern Ireland!

A 200 team World Cup Final would be better. 50 groups of 4. Top 2 advance + 28 of the best third place teams. 128 play in a single elimination tournament. Thats 7 rounds to determine a champion + a 3rd place game. All our allocation problems are solved.
