Todd: Now do you ever play football?
Sarah: No, I've never played.
Todd: NeverSarah: Never played, no.
Todd: OK. Do you ever go and watch games in Newcastle?
Sarah: Um, it's very difficult to watch games in Newcastle because it's a big club and it's Premiereshipand you have to book in advance quite a few years but I've seen some first division football clubsplay against each other.
Todd: You have to get tickets two years in advance?
Sarah: For the big clubs, yeah. They're booked up.
Todd: That's pretty intense. So when there's a game on TV then what do you do? Do you watch it at home? Do you go to a pub?
Sarah: Ah, it depends on the game. I like it and I like Premeireship football, and I like World Cup footballand Euro 2000 but I wouldn't watch particularly a first division game on the television, but normally I would go to the pub with friends and watch the game.
Todd: Do you think that athletes make to much money?
Sarah: I think footballers do. Yeah, I think they do. I think they do a good job but I think they're incredibly overpaid.
Todd: Yeah, I think it is the same thing in the states. I think they make too much money.
