I HATE MODERN FOOTBALL !

Once again just a combination of silliness and sheer greed.

Keep it at 32.
It works OK.

Adding an extra team to each qualifying group means an extra group game, and I think that will mean teams of lesser quality than we have now playing for a draw in the first couple of group stage games, just to get points on the board.
The group stages will be dull.
As it is I much prefer the knockout rounds.

And this time last year you would have said it about Ireland, Wales and Northern Ireland so the list of international minnows on your "take the piss list" is dwindling

Yep - FIFA are including more countries quicker than the UN can ratify new ones

And it only took UEFA to open up third place for the dream to become reality, mate.

I believe the world cup should stop and fifa disbanded, they no longer add any value to the world footballing community.
