HUH! HOOOO! HAUNS!

The terrifying Icelandic chant that filled the Allianz Riviera when they humilated England (and other teams previously, for they did dispatch the Netherlands in qualifying, for example) has been the subject of some research recently. The gutteral "Huh" or "Hooo" is onomatopoeic and apparently originates from the "Viking" or is it the "Norse"? This lasts about a minute!

The media didn't pay a lot of attention to this in the earlier Euro games but when the English team was on the end of the chant, it was compared to being confronted by a Haka.

Cardiff City midfielder Aron Gunnarsson led the team on the post match pitch, as most of the Iceland's  population filled their end of the stadium and enjoyed the team's new found fame.

It has been revealed that this is not a Scandinavian chant but has its roots two years ago at Fir Park, Scotland, home of Motherwell FC. The heart of the Motherwell crowd known as the "Bois" used the chant "hauns" and when they played against Europa League opponents from Reykjavik, the Icelanders were impressed,

FC Stjarnan took the chant home. The chant brought good fortune to the club that had won the Icelandic league title in 2014. They had dispatched Bangor (Wales) 8-0 originally, then sent Motherwell out of the Europa league 5-4, despite the chant.

Stjarnan's crowd, the "Silver Spoons" (locally called "Gardabaer"), because they come from the richer side of town, then stimulated by the "Huh" went on to beat Polish Lech Poznan before meeting their match, Italy's Internazionale, 0-9.

The chant was then adopted by the national side. But this is not the end of Motherwell's musical creation: fanchants.co.uk/football-team/motherwell
