Mech Ball Championship delayed
Alternative Sports correspondent Gerald Hopkins reports
This year's Mech Ball Finals, to be held on the planet of Hades, has had to be delayed due to a shortage of Power Loaders, the game's most important piece of equipment. The game, which involves two teams of 15 wearing Power Loaders trying to score a 'go' by carrying a two tonne Brikcrete ball across the opponents' go line, can only be started once more imports of Power Loaders have arrived. 'Ye canna git a suit fa love nae money', wailed Chunky Stewart, captain of the reigning champions Jambo Pagger.
