THINK those are jars of that stuff they scrape off the bottom of Aussie/British brewery kettles and then claim it's good for you, but an explanation is required for the different labels.
Or did they think that by putting those labels on them they could sell them as collector's items rather than trying to pass it off as food?

The names are the England team (Southgate the manager/coach) who recently came second in the Euro competition. Imagine if they had won it! The Sussexes would have named their next child after them.
It's not unprecedented.
When England won the World Cup in 1966,
according to Ancestry.com:
While 28,261 boys born in 1965 were given the same [first] name as one of 11 players who featured in the final, 1966 saw an incredible increase to 51,895 babies holding one of these names after England's players became national heroes, beating Germany 4-2 in extra time to lift the trophy.
