Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 11th February 2024
Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:
1. Following the lead of the English FA, D-Town Academicals have decided to adopt the new disciplinary system in all their Anusol (North) League fixtures. Any player guilty of dissent or threatening behaviour will be shown a blue card and sent off for 10 minutes. Spitting will attract a green card and 15 minutes, bodily assault a purple card and 20 minutes, and for the worst crimes of diving (or other cheating), a black card and 30 minutes.
2. And, during the week, it became known that the chap who lives in the Big House on The High Street is poorly. The exact type of poorliness was not disclosed. He is expected to be more poorly before he gets better, although his expected course of treatment has not been announced. His poorliness is not thought to be related to the undisclosed minor illness he had the week before. His daughter-in-law is also said to be poorly, but with a different undisclosed condition altogether. The man let it be known that the good wishes of the town’s population has been a great comfort to him, and that he was only too happy to be so transparent and public about his poorliness.
