It is 5th round onward. Which even this season alone would've deprived Rochdale of a TV replay versus Spurs, at Wembley. Big money. Rochdale would have received 45% of the profits and this coupled with TV money must mean that the money secured their immediate future.

They will have to do this, or it's not a break and the TV companies will demand it reverts back. We shall see. Sky will get rights to show the exhibition matches.

This isn't like the German window that is over 3 weeks long, and usually a month when not before a World Cup. And it won't fit in with anyone else's window either.

My understanding is that the 'Winter Breaks' in Germany,France,Italy etc are for a specific period when NO matches are scheduled, unlike what is being proposed for the break over here. It is being advocated that this is being driven by the TV companies and if so one has to accept that they do put a lot of money into the game for which clubs benefit, therefore they can call the shots.Clubs cannot have it both ways - get large sums from the TV rights then complain when decisions driven by TV go against them.
