WOOLYBACK Football fans.

[ScouseOrient]

A wollyback (IMO) is someone who supports a team for the glory.
#
E.g Liverpool & United.

To prove that your not supporting them for the glory name 10 places in your teams town.

E.G Liverpool:

Widnes
Anfield
Everton
New brighton
Toxteth
Bootle
Whiston
Huyton
Birkenhead
Wirral
Tranmere
Ellesmere Port



Your go. <3

[Rizla]

LOL, well, Whiston, Huyton, Bootle, New Brighton, Ellesmere Port, Tranmere, Wirral, Widnes, Birkenhead aren't in Liverpool.

Well, some people will let you off with Bootle and Huyton, but true scousers don't ;)

[ScouseOrient]

Lol.

I Went to bootle when i was up there to watch the Everton game.

One road just off the main shopping centre road,has about 9 pubs on it, one on every corner.

[the wombats]

You mean like estates in your own town? Cause I wanna answer this. ;D

[thesubways<3]

luton - stopsley, wigmore, sundon park, marsh farm, lewsey, putteridge, ashcroft, bury park, chalney & bramingham.

[FrozenWhisper]

The nearest BIG clubs to me are, Liverpool, Everton, Man Cit, and Man U. So I choose Liverpool. I've never lived in Liverpool so I can't name any..

[Corq]

Carlisle:

-Harraby
-Stanwix
-Currock
-Botcherby
-Kingstown
-Upperby
-Raffles
-Rosehill
-Belah
-St Annes

They are the main places but there are loads more :S

[WhatDidIdoNow?]

If you mean areas with a different postcode then I can't be bothered straining my mind, since only 5-6 come to my mind, but if you mean known areas, then here we go.

-Aigburth
-Toxteth
-Dingle
-Garston
-The Mud/Under the Bridge
-Speke
-Smithdown
-Allerton
-Picton
-Wavetree

Dingle can be counted and Toxteth and Mudland is in Garston. I'm not sure if Picton is classed as Wavetree or not, so whatever.

Oh, and Woolyback means from most of the areas you named for me :p Anywhere around the St.Helens area, mostly, like Whiston :p

Berwick Hills

[sock]

well. I support Oxford, so I am not a glory supporter. Oxford = Conference.

[:Hazel]

I don't think theres any need for me to, I'm a Norwich fan. :p

[Chaz]

This is stupid? Just because you support a team, dnt mean to say you have to live there? I support chelsea, because its a family thing.

[:Hazel]

I love it when people get ratty when the words "glory hunter" are mentioned.

[ScouseOrient]

A Family of glory hunters?

Amazing, ive never seen that before.

[Lincoln Imp!]

This is stupid, people could just look on the internet for towns ! :p

and my MAIN TEAM is Lincoln City, by a mile, i just support Liverpool as a second team, a team i like to watch, especially as theyre quite often on TV !

Therefore by supporting Liverpool I am not a glory hunter, glory hunters really are people that support a "big" team more then there local team. End of :)

[ScouseOrient]

Alright dont get a boner.

[Ashhizzle]

This is stupid? Just because you support a team, dnt mean to say you have to live there? I support chelsea, because its a family thing.
me too.. how do you expect me to know 10 places in chelsea? ;l what a load of rubbish thread :)
And btw if i supported my local team i'd be ashamed.. their in debt and started the season 13 points down :)

[WhatDidIdoNow?]

Chelsea is an area itself... ;)

[Chaz]

Amazing, ive never seen that before.

Considering they were not evan in the premiership when i got into football and its taken them 50 years to do it, you can shut right up. :rolleyes:

[ScouseOrient]

Exactly your a glory hunter.

You both are.

And Thorpe, it took chelsea 50 years to win it because they have the dosh.

I bet if you look hard enough youll see posts by you sticking up for united 2 Years ago :D.

[Michael.]

Chelsea is an area itself... ;)
Chelsea's ground is in the Hammersmith and Fulham district of London tyvm, and I don't even support them!

Do you really need to name districts if your a Middlesbrough fan and want to prove you're not a glory supporter?! I'll tell you games I've sat through when I've wanted to kill myself or throw MY season ticket at the manager.

[:Hazel]

I'll tell you games I've sat through when I've wanted to kill myself or throw MY season ticket at the manager.

Your not the only one. Some of the ****e I've seen at carrow road especially last season was just pathetic. And hey at least you lot are in the premier league. :@

[Lincoln Imp!]

Thats why they support them, theyre YOUR local team, and if the local dont support them, who will? theyll just get into EVEN MORE debt if nobody goes...:eusa_wall

*coughs*glory supporter*coughs*

[Rock_Your_Socks]

Well i support Arsenal so it's obvious i'm not a glory hunter, no one in their right mind would support them right now. Oh and Arsenal doesn't even exist, i think the part of London is Highbury.

[Chaz]

I bet if you look hard enough youll see posts by you sticking up for united 2 Years ago :D.

I laughed so hard. Really, i've not been here for 2 years, i hate united.

Call me a glory hunter if you will, but before we had billions, we were in 2nd-3rd place in the leauge. :rolleyes:

You can't accuse someone af glory hunting when you've never met them, i still have my very first chelsea shirt from when i was 4. Thats what a true fan is.

[Rock_Your_Socks]

Chelsea used to be awful, same as Arsenal.
Until George Graham came we were just a small mid-table team.

[brapbrap]

Back to basics then lol.

Ive always liked arsenal, most scousers do.

[Rock_Your_Socks]

I like Liverpool too.
Hate Chelsea and Man U though.

[brapbrap]

Same, i think your going to struggle this year, getting used to the bigger stadium.You liked the small space to pass around.

[Skizard]

TOTTENHAM

[brapbrap]

Thanks for that Sugar induced outburst....

[:Hazel]

I don't like any teams from the prem much. I follow it as a league but the teams all have too much money and no sense. ;)

[brapbrap]

Only because your not in it. Also in the wales game tonight Bellars could of easily scored but your "EARNIE" Tried to take it for himself and Phucked it up.


I HATE YOU <3 Just kidding.

[Acidulantes]

Lmao Bellamy will get too many goals for liverpool to be bothered with wales this season... I thought woolybacks were people who are from liverpool but dont talk with an accent cos they dont live there or they just pretend to be from liverpool... I get called it all the time cos I was born in fazakerely but I used to live in southport for most of my life... anyways, i support liverpool so I should go and name some places right?
anfield, fazakerely, bootle, huyton, old swan, toxteth...

I like arsenal too... thats weird...

[Mrs.McCall]

I can't be bothered listing all the ones by me, I am a Everton Fan though as my Dad is a scouser.

Also, a 'woolyback' is actually the term for someone who comes from either Crewe or Winsford, Cheshire.

ty love you too. Nah I think the prem is being ruined by all this money and takeovers that are happening, some clubs don't have a chance in hell to compete. The premier league is so commercialised now, it doesn't seem real anymore.

No it isnt Crewe it is places where they dont really speak with scouse accents, i just used it because i couldnt find a better word.

[Kasabian]

Woollyback is a dialect term used in Liverpool, England for a non-Liverpudlian

The term usually refers to a person from the neighbouring towns of St Helens, Widnes, Warrington and Wigan, as these places each share a similar accent to each other, though substantially different from Liverpool's 'scouse'. The term may also be used to simply refer to somebody that is not from Liverpool. Originally it was a nickname for those people who worked on the docks in Liverpool, who used to carry the wool for export onto the ships and were therefore called 'woollybacks'.

GLORY SUPPORTER!! I support Middlesbrough, live in thornaby they're my local team.

[Lµke]

Lol this is seriously a problem.

I class a scouser as someone who has been born n bred in the heart of Liverpool, and i class that as like mainly, Anfield, Everton, Tuebrook, Breckroad, priory road ways.

Places, like Garston, Aigburth, Kirby, Speke, Toxteth is just too far out of the heart of Liverpool.

Also people from Speke/Aigburth are stuck up and have a posh accsent and don't even talk like scousers, so how can they be classed as a real scouser?

[Joahh]

I support portsmouth :)

[brapbrap]

Is that animal in your sig giving you head Joah?

[x~Rebel~x]

Manchester United : Denton, Stockport, Hyde, Ashton, Dukenfield, Droylsden, Haughton Green, Openshaw, Failsworth, Reddish. Lol, no offense but this is pretty pointless, I have supported Liverpool for the whole of my life but i come from Manchester, thats how I know all of them ^^^ But there you go, answer to your question :P
