Potioncat:
In GoF when Draco first brings out the Potter Stinks badges, he does 
it behind Snape's back, and I think it's the same time that Pansy is 
laughing, also behind Snape's back. So while everyone knows Snape 
takes Slytherins' side, there appears to be some restraint used when 
Snape is around. 

I'm not sure which book it was, but in one case after Draco had 
messed up in a Quidditch game, he looked subdued, as if someone, 
teammates or Head of House, had taken him to task.

Potioncat, going off to count posts.
