    Not seen any announcement but Conor is talking about a break so presumably it’s going to happen.

    Good time for us to reset. With two local derbys this week.
    Be good to take a step back and reassess after the closing of the window. Plus go all guns blazing in these two games knowing a rest is around the corner.

    Still think the whole international call up thing is mental & games being called off. Just play the game both teams have enough players or otherwise just have an international break for all teams then no one is at an advantage or disadvantage - it will be another game moved to a Tues night and sandwiched in to create fixture congestion & will also mean attendance will be much less as it will be likely available on sky if played midweek so much less revenue for the club and I would imagine this will end up being offered at £15 when it’s rearranged.

    Good idea that. Scrap all lower league fixtures when there is an international break instead of having to do so after call ups. Or even better be made to play the game regardless making full use of the squad you have. It's always better to play on a Saturday so clubs make more money from not having to use floodlights and more people coming.

    Said it before. It's common sense to play the tin pot cup during international breaks instead of midweek and ban postponements in it

    If everyone had the International Break wouldn’t they mean that a night time match with all the problems you mentioned would be guaranteed instead of just a possibility? There’s only so many Saturdays in a season.
