JAT Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 10 hours ago, Gladram said: Read an article a while back about how an athletes training changed when the went from amateur to professional. The biggest difference was more rest, including sleep, the amount of training sessions and intensity didn't change. Sleep is very important in achieving a high level of fitness. Yep it's all about recovery time which PC always refers too! Starts as soon as they get off the pitch, so much has been implemented in improving recovery time since he came in!

If he performs as well as the little catamites who've been to beddy-byes for an hour or two in the afternoon training session I fail to see how it's an issue. I would have no complaints about being paid to sleep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilkleyram Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 and some research: Effects of Napping Athletes suffering from some degree of sleep loss may benefit from a brief nap, particularly if a training session is to be completed in the afternoon or evening. Waterhouse et al. (2007) are one of the only groups to investigate the effects of a lunchtime nap on sprint performance following partial sleep deprivation (4 h of sleep). Following a 30-minute nap, 20 m sprint performance was increased (compared to no nap), alertness was increased and sleepiness was decreased. In terms of cognitive performance, sleep supplementation in the form of napping has been shown to have a positive influence on cognitive tasks (Postolache et al., 2005). Naps can markedly reduce sleepiness and can be beneficial when learning skills, strategy or tactics in sleep-deprived individuals (Postolache et al., 2005). Napping may be beneficial for athletes who have to routinely wake early for training or competition and for athletes who are experiencing sleep deprivation (Waterhouse et al., 2007).

Rampage Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Siesta is a hot weather jobbo. it is culturally ingrained in the Spanish persona. Not appropriate IMO at DCFC for a few guys in the East Midlands. A game of table tennis and a pint of Adam's Ale was good enough when i was a lad. That is how we won the World Cup in 1066. Team spirit is the issue, so a good sauna and a sound thrashing with a bit of seaweed may help.. A round of golf and a good session of paint balling would be more useful than singing a lullaby to Bucko, which could prove to be inadvisable. I am joking, okay. No offence Nintendo.

You can't have a recall option in a normal loan (i.e. not an emergency or youth loan). Unless it's a full season loan, in which case the player can only be recalled during the January transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope that it does not come back to bite us and that we are not one Pearce short of the puzzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexydadbod Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 If keogh gets injured we will have to play shotts at cb because buxton is a left sided centre back. That's where the advantage of having pearce would come into play as he can comfortably play both rcb and lcb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tibbs Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I don't think we can begrudge the guy a loan move away in a career defining year for him. Whether we'll need him or not is not the issue for a club that has a few values still kicking around the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
