Are the Zorb balls frozen or something?

won't be worth going now!!

BTW - basic fairness - both Zorbs should surely be the same size/weight - they clearly aren't!!

Our half time "entertainment" surely has to be filed under the so bad it's (a tad) good category.

Regrettably "to be resumed".

Funny the first time, maybe twice ... but Jeez.

who knows - I suspect it has summat to do with the fact that the zorbing involves (uninsured?) members of the public - whereas the match involves insured-up-to-the-hilt players?

Really? But I can't see, if a football match with million pound assets can go ahead, what weather would make running on the spot in a huge hollow air ball unsafe?

At least it won't set up a more nervy 2nd half as usual then.

the general rule is that if we win the zorb challenge, we lose the match.
no zorb, must be a good thing.

i do find it quite entertaining though.
