So long as he stays at Blackpool, I'd bet on it most likely (or most of it) coming from Preston fans. If he moved to Derby, it would most likely be Fworders etc. etc.

How do we define abuse though and where do we draw the line? Would it be OK for Blackpool fans to chant "He shags who he wants, he shags who he wants, he's Jake Daniels, he's shags who he wants." if yes, would it be OK for opposition fans to sing that? What about "We hate Preston and we hare Preston..... We are the Blackpool, we're queer" or Preston to chant "We hate Blackpool....... they are the Blackpool, they're queer". If it's all about intent, what if the intent is humorous banter?

Last week, somebody claiming to represent all responsible Tottenham Hotspur supporters called for their fans to cease chanting "Sign on, sign on, with pen in your hand, cus you'll never work again" at Liverpool fans because some of them might be offended by it.
