Quote: Jake the Peg "Me from west ella? Nah I was originally a Hedon lad but moved somewhere upmarket when it started to fill up with people moving out of east hull. Very cultured was my time at south holderness though, just ask the duck about that.
As for the rest, I'm still reeling from the revelation that there is another rugby team in east hull but I've never heard of them'"
Ah Pickering gets to the root of it.
Castigated, made to wear a leper's bell, shunned by his local community and then correctly exiled for his one eyed choice Jake trawled the wastelands of Gypsyville, Coltman Street, North Hull Estate for like minded (some cruel people say simple minded) folks with similar deviant interests. They came together in their collective ideology of
1 over rating their abilities
2 revelling in their own self importance
3 leaving before the end in order to avoid the reality of defeat
This exile and wandering drives the 4-8 daily urges to strike back at those that rightfully shunned him.
It makes sense now.
