Rumours going around Twitter (I know, I know) that a winter break is going to be announced sometime soon...

Nowt wrong with Twitter, there's just a few luddites on here who don't understand it and think it's full of people saying what they're having for tea. Can't be doing with facebook though. Oh and the Winter Break's a bad idea cos the Prem teams will just fill it with money-spinning winter tours and friendlies

Jug ears said last night that he had heard it was going to happen in his interview with Klipperty.

That's fine. Another excuse for English failure crossed off the list.

It's a great idea, it works very well in other countries.
It would probably benefit the English national team too.

As long as it's after the New Year/3rfd Round FA Cup weekend and doesn't impact on the Xmas fixtures I actually don't mind the idea. People are skint after Xmas as well so gives them a few more in the bank...

Fuck it off. Winter break!!! Like my arse.
We've gone over 125 years without it and we played more games then. Why start with it now when we play fewer games and have bigger squads of overpaid pansies.

It wont impact Xmas
Its likely to be after the FA Cup 3rd round weekend, a 2 week break at a guess
No doubt teams will jet off and play stupid friendlies in Dubai etc and defy the point of the break.
If it means one less pointless international friendly though to get the extra game or 2 in then its fine.
I would even take a game on Easter bank holiday Monday (like the old days!) - I liked that one!

The last few seasons the England team has had a chance of a winter break, but Woy chose to play useless friendlies instead.
