The story is mainly noteworthy for what might be described as an optimistic plea for exceptional hardship - Caldwell claimed that the disqualification would make it too difficult for him to travel around to recruit players, something he might need to do fairly urgently given his team's league position. Seems the magistrates weren't convinced - I must say it would be hard to believe that a professional football team wouldn't have the means to provide a driver for any such journeys.
