Mr Potter,
I do believe that the Headmaster as well as Professor McGonagall forbid the attendance of this quidditch match of which you speak. This is a rather serious infraction of rules. I must point out that the same rules apply to celebrities as they do to everyone else.
Normally, for something of this nature, it is enough to say that you have deeply disappointed Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall. However, I feel in this case that this is not enough for you to truly appreciate the trust you have broken. So, with approval from your Head of House and the Headmaster, I will deduct fifteen points for you and Mr Weasley and you will serve two detentions with Professor Trelawney.
If you must disobey orders, rule one is that you don't talk about the crime afterwards. Not even in your personal journal. You can thank Mr Weasley for that.
And finally to Mr Malfoy: It is my understanding that you were in attendance for this quidditch match. Surely you were able to spot Mr Potter and Mr Weasley, yet you have not come forward with any information. You will report to my office after classes on Tuesday and give me an explanation for this.
-Professor Snape
