    This isn’t a new argument I know, but literally can’t see any benefit of sides like Lichtenstein, Andorra, Gibraltar, San Marino etc competing at that level. They don’t gain anything from it (perhaps financially but it hasn’t helped them attract people to sign up as full internationals). I do think they should have their own preliminary tournament where they play each other and the winner of that group gets to play the full qualifiers personally.

    The Nations League is similar to what you're describing.

    Yeah it is, but it’s not exactly that format. I know winning certain nations league groups means you get a potential play off spot, but I guess what I’m saying is unless you win the preliminary round you don’t play in the qualifiers full stop
