[02:30.52]Conversation 1
[02:34.15]Did you see the mottram match yesterday?yeah,I can’t believe he lost!
[02:43.79]I know.Five-one up in the last set and serving for the match-he should’ve won.
[02:50.84]I know.He just seemed to go to pieces.
[02:56.48]I mean,how many double faults did he serve?
[03:01.21]I don’t know.but it must’ve been ten or more.
[03:05.89]I don’t think he scored a point in his last three service games.
[03:11.16]I know.It was awful.I felt a bit sorry for him.actually.
[03:17.62]He’s never going to win Wimbledon,is he?
[03:22.19]He just doesn’t have the mental strength.
[03:27.44]Conversation 2
[03:32.27]Did you see the fight on Saturday?Yeah
[03:38.80]what a fix!I can’t believe Clarey lost.I know.
[03:44.86]They must’ve bribed the judges or something.I mean.
[03:49.54]he knocked the other guy down twice
[03:54.21]and he must’ve won most of the other rounds.I know.
[03:59.36]I just don’t know how they can say Winton won on points.No.
[04:04.72]Except,of course.now they’re going to make even more money having a re-match.
[04:11.56]It’s all about money,isn’t it?The whole thing’s just fixed.

[04:29.95]Snooker!Why?Oh,my host father is really into it
[04:36.72]and he had a spare ticket for this competition.
[04:41.39]so he asked if I wanted to go along.
[04:45.34]I didn’t have anything else to do,
[04:49.49]so I thought I’d go and see what it was about.
[04:54.16]And what was it like?Awful.It’s just so boring!
[05:00.33]All you do is sit in almost complete silence
[05:05.68]and watch two guys try to hit these different coloured balls into holes.
[05:11.93]I just don’t get it!Hadn’t you seen it on TV before?
[05:17.28]No.we don’t really play it in our country.Anyway,after about an hour,

[06:46.91]Japan won five-nil.You’re joking.What went wrong?
[06:54.46]Everything.We couldn’t pass.we gave the ball away too much.
[07:01.22]We just kept kicking it up the pitch all the time.
[07:06.08]and then when we did have a chance,
[07:10.03]we couldn’t shoot and when we had to defend,
[07:14.99]we couldn’t tackle.Honestly,it was awful.
