Because, with the exception of Rangers and Celtic (and possibly Hibs, Hearts and Aberdeen), none of the other teams would progress - I can't really see Total Network Solutions beating many teams from the English league (or Scottish for that matter).
Also, IMO, it would be difficult to get all 4 FAs to agree to a format - if we had a cup competition with 92 English league clubs, 40-odd Scottish clubs, 10(ish) Welsh clubs and however many Irish clubs, the competition would go on forever.
