Ultimate 'Viking War Chant' welcomes Iceland football team

This chant is awesome
.
Picture the scene, hundreds of years ago, hundreds of boats approach Britain's shores. These boats contain warriors rowing to a drum beat. Faces painted they start this war chant with a look of mischief in their eyes

It'd have me running for the hills, that's for sure.

I thought the Iceland chant was very haunting during the football matches Terry .... something I had never heard before.

Same here.
Very intimidating from an impeccably behaved bunch of fans.

A lot of people there, most of the population of Iceland by the looks of it.

A fitting welcome for a proper football team.

Not like our lot I suspect - no masses of fans to greet them before they skulked away to their respective teams.

Re: Ultimate 'Viking War Chant' welcomes Iceland football team

Fans and players perform the intimidating clap after victories in Euro 2016
Each clap is followed by a chant of 'huh' as celebration increases in speed
Display was compared to a Viking war chant, but it has an unlikely origin
It was apparently inspired by Motherwell's version of 'Since I Was Young'

Suggest you listen to the Motherewell fans on you tube before you show your prejudices.
