Exeter City's missed chances costly in Portsmouth defeat

17 days ago Devon Live

Exeter City were left to rue early missed chances as Portsmouth ended a long winless run at Fratton Park. That was costly and moments later, Marlon Pack smashed home a volley from 25 yards just before the hour to break the deadlock. Joe Morrell, seconds after his missed a sitter, saw an effort squirm through Jamal Blackman to seal the victory late on. The defeat for City ended a run of four without a loss, and Caldwell said that City were punished for not taking their chances, but produced a decent performance. “We created some great moments in the final third but didn’t take our chances today.

Multi-millionaire celeb bodyguard slams 'fantasist' owner of Grand Designs 'nightmare' home

Mr Short said on the show he 'couldn't live in it' after the heartbreak surrounding the build which resulted in the breakdown of his marriage. The 52-year-old told Grand Designs presenter Kevin McCloud that he had lost his marriage and ended up in £7 million of debt since committing to building the lighthouse-inspired property in Croyde. "There’s no way you would get £10m for a property in this condition," the martial artist Fiddes told the newspaper. The house first appeared on Grand Designs in 2010, when Mr Short estimated it would take 18 months to build. Viewers watched Mr Short and Kevin McCloud return to the home, which he once described as a "carcass" and as being like a wreckage on the seashore.

Beloved Devon pub closes for good blaming 'archaic business rates system'

A much-loved Devon pub has announced it's closing for good because the economic crisis, rising costs of everything and "archaic business rates system" have made it too difficult to trade. The pub bosses have blamed the ongoing cost of living crisis, VAT, local planning authorities and what they see as an antiquated business rates system for the downfall. The culmination of an archaic business rates system, decreasing footfall, higher energy costs, food inflation, reimplantation of 20% vat and an inefficient local planning authority means that it makes no sense to trade at a horrendous loss over the winter. The team worked tirelessly over the last year to make the business work and I remain in awe at their loyalty, hard work and devotion. The team at the pub have all worked so hard.

BBC I Escaped to the Country: Couple head to Wales despite finding 'awesome' Devon rectory

Caroline and Michael first appeared on our screens when they starred in 'Escape to the Country' in 2020, hoping to make the move from Reading, Berkshire, to the idyllic Devon countryside. Upon watching the original programme, it seemed overwhelmingly obvious that the Chawleigh mystery house - a Grade II* listed old rectory - would become the family's forever home. The Chawleigh property boasted a gorgeously refined galleried living space, a large kitchen, a library/office space, and a whopping four staircases which led the way to five bedrooms and two family bathrooms. Two years on, Sonali decided to pay Caroline and Michael a visit in their new home - but it gave us quite the shock when she greeted the couple in Wales. According to Michael, the couple stumbled upon their now "forever home" by accident, as Michael forgot to change the search radius on a property website.

Pilgrims win enthralling Devon Derby

Plymouth Argyle made it nine home wins in a row as they twice came from behind to win an enthralling Devon Derby. The lead only lasted five minutes though as Bali Mumba blasted home a wonderstrike from 30 yards to make it 2-2. The win stretched Argyle’s lead at the top of League One to four points. Pierce Sweeney again captained the side, one of only two survivors in the starting eleven for the Grecians from the previous Derby, the 4-0 win back in 2019. But on 25 minutes, City took the lead, and it was from a perfect counter-attack.
