UEFA president Michel Platini is leading the push for the introduction of a controversial international calendar throughout the soccer world.And the proposals for the revolutionary changes are already well under way at FIFA's Swiss HQ.Platini's shock idea will mean that, from 2015, major tournaments such as the World Cup, European Championships and African Nations Cup would be staged in February and March.And to accommodate the upheaval, every league in the world would be forced to cram their domestic season into a 7½-month period between mid-March and the end of October.That would leave a six-week period from November to mid-December for international qualifying games followed by a complete four-week rest for every player until mid-January.
watch and wait, our prime time Saturday 3PM kickoffs in November will be spent watching the Hyundai A-League.

I normally agree with Platini
