    Yes I know what they are referring to but it’s usually aimed at our 6 fingered friends down the A52 even though most of the people that shout it weren’t even born at that time and probably haven’t got a clue why they are shouting it.

    My Barnsley cousin was genuinely embarrassed by the scab chant, i told him he had no need to apologise, it meant naff all to me

    I was a bit confused by on chant from the wanaby Dee Dars. They were calling us scabs??? 

    Its what the Yorkshire miners called other miners who worked while they were on strike in the 80's.........Notts miners were the first to fold so why Derby get labelled i dont know, maybe someone knows more than me

    Did they nab the fans in the Barnsley end who were giving out discriminatory abuse of some kind

    I was in the home end when that announement was made, i was baffled as i hadnt heard any offensive chanting or shouts from anyone that i would say was sexist or racist, but there were a few stewards looking up into the stand definitely looking for someone, ....not sure if "scabs" or "scabbers" would be deemed offensive or discriminity there was plenty of that but it  certainly didnt bother me

    I was walking past Derby fans at the train station with my Barnsley supporting cousin and our kids, found it quite funny he kept bending down picking up coins that i realised were being thrown at us, and he says to me in his thick yorkie accent "im making a fortune ere lad"

    As for the game itself, terrible from us, Barnsley were better all over, hate to say it but although the numbers looked good the noise levels from Derby fans wasnt the best today, i was expecting it to be better, but i enjoyed ma day out, took my lad bowling and enjoyed a quality sit down Indian after the game, couldnt go on the lash as my lads only 13 but got the impression Barnsley would be a cracking night out, so planning to get over again soon, and meet up with relatives i havent seen for too long ?
