    Yeah the vast, vast majority of the Forest fans who had nothing to do with it need to have "scabs" chanted at them.

    I understand The Miners Strike destroyed livelihoods but it's embarrassing having to listen to that **** every single game against them.

    So you don't mind when they sing to us you'll never work again .
    Don't go if it embarrasses you that much as I will be singing at top of my voice.

    The vast majority of people screaming scab tonight will not have even been born at the time.

    Similarly a fair amount of those being screamed at won't have either.

    It's about time folk started behaving like adults. I'm not saying we all start pretending we're pleased about what happened - (I'm not from Barnsley, but Donny was no less effected) - but still shouting scab at Nottingham clubs is just juvenile. It's more than 30 years ago now, it's akin to castigating a German today due to conduct in the second world war.

    There's one or two reds living in Germany aren't there? Are we to call them Nazi sympathisers?

    And we never shout scab at Leicester, they mostly worked. The small number of working pits in Lancashire mainly worked - shall we shout scab at Burnley and Bolton etc?

    Time to move on. Scargill was fighting a just cause but was flawed. He should have had a second ballot in 84.

    Thatcher was a lovely person. As that will be starred out, let's say the word began with c. I'm not ashamed to say I'm glad she's dead.

    They are so much more to blame for what happened than working blokes in Notts who put their families first. And they hardly were rewarded. They ended up unemployed too remember.

    Move on. We are better and stronger than that.

    i've got some good mates from notts pits,one of whom worked at moorgreen colliery where there were 22 of them on strike out of 1500,most notts pits were like that,theres a book out by a chap called john lowe,he worked at clipstone colliery where 55 men stuck it out,these men were true trade union men with principles,the book is a diary of the strike,well worth a read to exactly what notts strikers went through..So think on tonight,not all notts men were scabs,some were real warriors who were hounded and beaten up just for being on strike.

    The strike ended 32 years ago. Nobody in Notts or Yorkshire works in a mine anymore, and most of the people directly involved in the strike are now retired or close to it. It wouldn't be so bad, but the only pit within 20 miles of Nottingham city centre closed sometime in the 1930s. It would be like the Forest fans singing strike songs at the Blades.

    Yes, it was a major event in the life of many people and the start of the decline in our town, but perhaps it is now time to give it a rest.

    They'll be singing with us dek imo ,they know who we mean and if I were a Forrest fan that were on strike wherever I may be cos there's not just us that gives em it they get it at Cardiff and Swansea, Sunderland etc I would have a wry smile on my face cos the scabby badtards deserve it for rest of their miserable lives.

    Which ones? I was only at school then, but Wikipedia only has Brinsley anywhere near Nottingham (closed for mining in 1934, but the shafts were closed in 1970). The rest are in Mansfield or north Nottinghamshire. Checking with the BBC Pit Closures list now, I can see several pits around Nottingham that weren't on Wiki. The nearest appears to be about 5-6 miles from the city centre.

    What gets me is whenever an ex miner is interviewed on radio or tv all you get is itwas a appaling job working in your undies in 100 degree heat
    The strike did,nt work and was'nt going to work mr scargill got it wrong he would have been better keeping the men working fetching the coal and proving to the government that the mining industry could be cost effective

    My dad will be at oakwell tonight he was a miner from leaving school till the early 90s. He has told me all about the tough times and the strikes. He has done well since redundancy but he won't forget or give it a rest and you can't expect people to.
