Yeah United Celtic here. It’s a Catholic thing, that’s why LFC are also connected with Celtic. Back in the day when all us Irish jumped off that boat and headed to Liverpool and Manchester with our family priests we got baptised with the football of the Jesus and our Celtic heritage 🤣 The prod teams were Everton city and rangers. All that tit is mostly long forgotten by English leagues but if you’re indoctrinated you’re kinda stuck!

I know there are places in this country that don’t have huge teams (like Southend) and totally get why people from those areas choose “most successful team at the time”, thus big swathes of LFC, MUFC and now MCFC fans in these locations, but unless Jacks brothers/dad:family were big football or LFC fans (reader she hasn’t suggested that at all) how would newborn or even say 5 year old, chess playing, Bally dancing, karate chopping, song writing, church going, lonely and gifted Jack have formed this view of kickyball? As the youngest of a big family I know exactly where my indoctrination came from but her monarchy loving military around the edges family don’t strike me as the kickyball types 🤷‍♀️

One thing I know about the Southend grammar schools system is, although they cream off the highest achieving kids across south Essex, they have to fulfil a quota of Southend kids.

Soooo, arguably, you can get into Southend/Westcliff grammar schools with a slightly lower 11+ score if you’re local.

I’ve heard of kids from London going to Southend schools for sixth form they’re so good, one family I know of sent theirs as she wants to be a doctor (like parents). Which is why I suspect none of Jackie’s peers ever comment - they’re likely all earning well, owning their homes, etc and don’t want the NWNF gremlins at their door.

But at some stage, when he gets to an age he will chose his team and favour one (or a completely other depending on where you live and peer pressure) but always have a soft spot for that other team because there’s a connection though family. My dads mum was a scouser, but we were born and raised in Manc with my mums family in control of football matters, but there was occasional kick back from Dads side. Southends finest connection with Liverpool is her baby daddy and her connection with QPR was her ex. Neither have been in her life for anything close to 30 years, but more importantly she’s never mentioned either preference as a stand alone comment outside of these relationships, despite being best mates with Marcus.

It’s not true about Liverpool and Everton, they’re actually both started by Protestants and aren’t at all divided by religion in the way Rangers and Celtic are. Given that they both have their grounds next to each other, neither one is located in a truly Catholic or Protestant area. You’ll meet as many people who will tell you Everton are a Catholic team as would tell you Liverpool are. As much as there’s traditional rivalries between reds and blues, Scousers stand together in a way other city rivals don’t.

Anyway we all know Jacks a shape shifting personality void who has zero interest in football

still can’t get over the £2.5k in jewellery. We’ve seen squigs either apologising for their lack of disposable income to sponsor her or proud they’ve got a tiny bit to spare for the first time in their lives and…. This is what it goes on. How the duck she sleeps at night is absolutely beyond me???

It's her turning up to represent the povs in parliament while wearing a grand's worth of Tiffany jewellery for me!

Hidden in plain sight.

It's like when someone's having an affair at work and everyone knows. "Mention-itis" they call it on the other site for mums. When they just cant help themselves mentioning someone's name. And everyone notices.

Jack is having a dalliance with the rich kids and she isn't afraid to be a little bit careless about showing it.

That's just on three pieces too! What else have we missed due to her other chaos'?
