Woolybacks are the little Suburban farmers who live in The Havant And Waterlooville Area just outside Portsmouth. They talk in an accent which is a hybrid between Welsh, West County and East End Cockney, Female Wooly Backs wear sheep skin jackets and like to imitate their hero Cruella de Vil from 101 Dalmatians, while Male Woolybacks work in Lidl and talk like Brin from Gavin and Stacey, A Famous Woolyback would be Chelsea Midfielder Mason Mount who grew up in Waterlooville and is a Big Supporter of Havant Football Club.
