I got in one night, then a resident parking just gone 2am blocked me in. Had to get the Police involved, phone her parents to get the car moved. Was illegal parking, too!
Those residents are twats. They deffo park like dicks on purpose. Luckily, I am a skilled driver who see's it as a challenge! When I am not blocked in!
I work nights and finish, on average, about 0800 and usually go to bed about 1300 - 1400 hours although it has been as late as 1600 hours.
Let me ask you this.
Would you on, I'm guessing here, a regular 9-5 job, go home and be in bed at 1800 only to rise at around 0200am when you start at 0900am? Insanity. Exactly my point. I sleep later in the day then I am fresh for work. Sometimes I goof up with getting up. Some Saturdays, like last Saturday, I stayed up all day (with Mr Corona) and finally hit the sack at 2130 in order to get my body back into day mode. I am off this week.
Nights can screw up your body the odd time. If I am tired, then sleep becomes #1.
My need for sleep has changed as I've got older. At one time, I couldn't function on less than 8 hours kip. Now, while feeling a little tired when I first get up, I can see the day through on 4-5 hours but wouldn't make a habit out of it.

I did nights for two and a half years. The pay was good but in all honesty it fucked me up. I couldn't sleep and it made me irritable and hostile, traits that I'd like to think, are not usually associated with me. Mind you, supporting PNE for 48 years sometimes has a similar effect.
Comforting to know it"s not just JD that's fucked up, irritable and hostile after working nights.??
Unfortunately I very rarely get more than 4-5 hours a night, not due to anything other than I'm shit at sleeping. In fact the last couple of nights I've had about 2 hours and 3 hours. I hate it when people say they're asleep soon after their head hits the pillow. That's the dream (excuse the pun)!
I'm guilty of feeling really tired and falling asleep on the sofa. The wife wakes me up, I go to bed, can't sleep so come back down stairs, fall asleep on the sofa and then get bollocked in the morning.
Maybe now people will realise what I meant about characters with backbone. No balls shown today. No tackling,no heart,no passion 'no pride= no chance. I think 11 off the terraces would have shown more of these today. Could anyone imagine Greegs to allow this type of show?
one that’s standing out is Pearson is trying so hard not to Mass cards that it’s now costing him and the wider team what he is good at.

Avoiding cards by doing 2 yard sideways passes and back passes? He has the ability to drive forward with the ball but chooses not to.
We saw against Luton, Reading and Middlesbrough we are way too relaxed in trying to break down a defence where they have pretty much everyone behind the ball. We need some urgency from the start. Run at them into the box, play the occasional long ball but all this patient tippy tap passing gives them confidence and it nearly even cost us against away whipping boys Luton.
I bet Brentford are not adopting this patient buildup approach at home.
