I'm not averse to the idea of a break per se, should stop players from being burnt out but there are two problems with it: 1) Teams will take the opportunity to cash in; 2) The really bad weather int he UK is totally unpredictable, could be anytime over the Winter which could mean two breaks as a result. | |

They won't really like the idea of midweek games (which could interfere further with League fixtures anyway), so the season will end up longer, encroaching into the summer break instead. | |

And thus leaving even less time to recouperate....assuming burn out really is a problem. | |

Would love to see what Suffolk and Norfolk Constabulary would do if we broke with habit and made it not only through to the 4th round, but into the 5th round and had a tie against Norwich... | |
