Text Cut: Quidditch fans

And now football, which she was truthfully curious about. She'd probably have to ask Liam about it later on or convince him and Amy to teach her over the holidays. Tottenham? Somehow that sounded familiar to her, though she could've just been thinking she'd heard it to make herself feel better.
Though she was sure that it actually was a place...
"So who are the teams?" she asked, her head again to the side as she wondered what the reaction would be. After all she knew Forrest was just as enthusiastic about football as she was about Quidditch.

Mostly because the name Newcastle was sort of cute and made him wonder if there were a bunch of new castles in the region.
He was by no means a football fan in the same light that he was a quidditch fan, but he did enjoy the sport.
All football related questions he would leave to the boy. He seemed to feel more comfortable when talking about the sport, so best to give that confidence to him - ignoring the fact that he did not know all the names anyway.
Forrest wanted to BOO Professor Airey for rooting for those two losers (and his mind just couldn't understand how he could root for TWO teams at the same time, but let's ignore his muggle-thinking brain) but that would be disrespectful to the man, so he preferred to say
"I see," in a thoughtful voice. He didn't
see, actually, but he wouldn't get that.
Unless, he could read minds. He had to ask about that later too, whether it was possible.
Attention back on Kahlan. He'd work on the Professor later and convert him to a Tottenham fanatic.
"There are twenty teams in the top league, actually, and every year three teams are relegated to lower league and likewise three teams are promoted, so it changes really. But there are certain teams that have the strength to be permanent in top league." His face shone PROUDLY as he grinned.
"Tottenham is one of them." Naturally. He supported no loser team.
