Not much of a break for the World Cup. Appreciate the players would have been playing for 3 months before it starts but Countries wont have much time to prepare before the group games start.

The FA got their wish when they asked for none of the big 6 to play each other on that weekend. Hoping they can convince TV companies to not have a Sunday match that weekend, and play Thursday & Friday.

If I’ve read it correctly, The break for the World Cup is between November 12 and Boxing Day. Does that apply to EFL fixtures too?

Championship yes. Leagues 1 & 2 no.
