FIFA chiefs face all-out war with Europe's top clubs over plans to turn football into asummersport.

 

Under the proposals, the Premier League would play throughout the British game's traditional mid-year break, with the season transformed to run from February to November.

 

The initial impetus behind the idea came from UEFA president Michel Platini, who has backed the concept for more than a decade.

 

Despite the outright opposition of the big five leagues - England, France, Spain, Germany and Italy - the plan is now gaining support among FIFA bosses.

Is this a good idea?

 

It takes away alot of the crappy weather issues, but could see games played in some really hot weather.
