What is that dirge the Leeds fans chant over and over with the trumpet accompaniment?

Are they really wee? Is it a song about Rob Burrow?

I think it's some sort of song charm that coerces Dicky Silverwood into giving them penalties.

Horrible noise!

Is it important that it mustn't contain consonants? Or is that some sort of dental problem common to West Yorkshire?

O wee are weee
O wee are weee
O wee are wee
O wee are wee
O wee are weeeeee

(Repeat ad infinitum)

Not trumpets, kazzoo's

For some reason I didn't hear the Saints fans singing at all on Friday...

BUT WHAT ARE THEY SINGING?!

Or is it really just some sort of wordless vowels-only chant; some sort of bonding ritual predating language from the early Stone Age?

Leeds have so far put in an outstanding performance against the odds and this is what you want to post.

Yorkshire mating call.

Baaaaaaaaaaaa

Well, let's see:

Saints lost by 26
Wigan lost by 30
Leeds now 26 behind with 12 minutes left.

So I reckon focussing on the strange wordless chant of the fans is a lot less bleak than focussing on the fare on the pitch.

That was posted at HT when the game was in the balance with Leeds playing with a scratch team, so the point was very relevant. Leeds may have been well beaten since but at least they put in some passion and application for long periods which was pretty much void from the previous two nights.
