The origin of the term yobbo is reputedly from a 19th century English slang term yob, meaning "backwards boy" or "a boy never-do-well".

Modern usage of yobbo usually means lout, hooligan, or anotherwise uncouth and coarse male, such as the soccer hooligan in the UK and the ugly Australian in the Antipodes.

Avoid.
