100 % agree with Monobrow - no.
Main problem is when it should be - Dec ? Jan ? Feb ? Last year Jan saw the most matches cancelled this year it may be Dec, next year who knows ? Hence, you could have a two winter break, followed by another fortnight of weather affected fixtures, resulting in a real fixture backlog. Due to the unpredictable nature of the British climate, for me this is a non starter.
As a traditionalist, Boxing day has always been a football day for me and having lost so many footballing traditions through Sky (3.00 Saturday becoming a rarity) it would be nice to preserve the Christmas and New Years Day fixtures.
