The Rams were beaten 1-0 at home by Sky Bet Championship leaders Norwich.
Following the match, Derby highlighted the issue and again called for an end to all such abuse.
One of our social media feeds was today subject to posts containing abhorrent racist abuse relating to members of our team, including Colin Kazim-Richards. This is not acceptable.
