Is wool used for anyone outside of Liverpool or more for those just on the outskirts trying to be scouse?
"Woolyback" I think originates from labourers in Cheshire who back in the day, used to load wool onto wagons to be transported to the dock, they used to sling bales of wool on their shoulders or backs inevitability causing it to shred on their clothing, hence the term "woolybacks".
It is used to describe anyone from outside of Liverpool.
