May help to explain ______side references to Derbys (also that they are pronounced dar-bees)for people as well. Basically just references to the river in the local area right? Do people in England really refer to it as such or is that something more pronounced in commentary during games?

Was going to post the same thing. I've never understood the pronunciation & spelling inconsistencies with that word. It's also one of those English words that just doesn't sound right coming out of an American mouth. It's right up there with "gaffer" as one of the more cringe-worthy things you might hear a soccer fig say. Excuse my blasphemy here, but Stu Holden used to say it all the time in interviews when he was still playing in England and it bugged the shite out of me.
