A FOOTIE-crazed six-year-old outdid his classmates by showing up to his school’s Halloween party dressed as Manchester City’s Jack Grealish.
Nairn Rodgers put on the club’s uniform and scraped his hair back in a band like his hero before drawing on stubble.

Jack Grealish is Nairn’s favourite player
His costume idea came three days after Nairn realized his desire to see Grealish, 28, play by touring City’s Etihad Stadium.
Parents Jordan Rodgers, 26, and Michaela Goodwin took him 200 miles to the 2-1 win against Brighton last Saturday to commemorate his upcoming seventh birthday.
“Jack Grealish is his favorite player, and we’re proud of him and how well he suited the costume and actually looked like Grealish,” Michaela, 23, said.
“Other kids dressed up as frightening pumpkins, witches, and Encanto, but no other footballers.” Unfortunately, they no longer award prizes for best dressed.”
Nairn, who attends Machanhill Primary School in Larkhall, near Glasgow, plays football for his neighborhood side.
“He’s only six, but football is his everything,” Michaela added.
“He aspires to be a footballer.” It’s all he ever does and has done since he was able to kick a ball.
“His room is filled with Manchester City posters, football cards, scarves, and he has two strips.”
Nairn now has his own following.
Tracy Robson commented on Michaela’s Jack suit on Facebook, saying, “Looks like him so much.”
“I’m howling,” Amy Crawford said. He’s dressed like a true man.”
