PFA issue statement over Singh's Pedersen comment
1:05pm Thursday 16th August 2012 in News
THE PFA have issued a statement defending Morten Gamst Pedersen after comments made by Blackburn Rovers global advisor Shebby Singh on Saturday.
Singh likened Pedersen to 'a pensioner' at an open meeting with fans but has since apologised.
The PFA, however, were not satisfied with Singh's apology - confirming that many Rovers players were upset by the initial comments.
A statement read: "The PFA have been in discussions with the players at Blackburn Rovers in relation to the recent comments made by Shebby Singh.
"We share their considerable disappointment that anyone connected to Blackburn Rovers would make such disrespectful comments about a player like Morten Gamst Pedersen.
"The feeling within the squad is that as a group of players they support each other but particularly someone like Morten who is so respected within the club and indeed the game.
"Personal criticism of this nature is never acceptable and the players are shocked that someone from within their club has seen fit to make such comments.
"Whilst accepting that anyone can have an opinion on football, someone in such a position of responsibility should be more mindful of the comments he makes particularly when you consider what a valuable member of the team Morten is and the great contribution he has made and continues to make to Blackburn Rovers and Norway.
"Any comments that are made should be based on fact, and it is our understanding that the club’s statistics on Prozone over the last season completely disproves any such uninformed views.
"He should be mindful of bringing the game and the club into disrepute and being completely disrespectful to a player who has served Blackburn Rovers with distinction during his eight-year career representing the club in 260 matches and scoring 34 goals.
"The situation has not been helped by the subsequent apology which didn't seem to retract the comments, rather Mr Singh simply implied he was ‘too honest for his own good’.
"The PFA are very concerned about this situation and naturally we are fully supportive of Morten and the other players at Blackburn Rovers."
Steve Kean and Danny Murphy have this afternoon spoken out and defended the players’ stance over the PFA statement.
“That’s the first I’ve heard about the statement,” said Kean. “It shows the players are together and look out for each other.”
“The comments were unwanted and ill-timed and the players were upset about comments on of their own.”
Murphy said: “It’s just something you don’t want. It was ill-advised and should just not have been said. We need everyone together, and that is why we have come out to defend one of our team-mates.”

Presumably now it is time the LMA come out and make a statement about Steve Kean's equally shocking drunken rant against Sam Allardyce, which has been in the public domain for months and yet no comment from the authorities.

No doubt in my mind that we've been taken for fools once again by Kean and Agnew. All made up to try and sell some more season tickets and keep the fans quiet for a couple of weeks. More fool me, I actually thought for a minute that we were serious about getting quality players but no, they cost money which Venky's certainly are not going to spend.
IF we get any more signings they will be either loanees or freebies or Portuguese under 20's who will make a couple of appearances each and then disappear like Rochina and Vukcevic. Disgraceful. This club has about as much chance of promotion this season as I have of winning the US Presidential election.

- Morten Gamst Pedersen on average over 90 minute matches did more running than any other Blackburn player last season (therefore his legs haven't 'gone' Shebby). He also, I'm led to believe, provided more assists than any other player
- However, his lack of composure on the ball, wasted crosses, loss of possession and poor tackling proved that he is not a premier league standard player and certainly contributed to our lowly league position and then relegation
That is a FACT
Other facts contributing to relegation include inept tactics (Steve Kean & coaching staff), lack of motivation (Steve Kean & coaching staff), giving the ball back to the opposition at any available opportunity (Robbo, Dann), poor Passing (Dann, Petrovic), poor finishing (Modeste, Goodwillie, et al), poor fitness (Dunny, Petrovic), poor contract negotiations (Steve Kean/Hoilett).

Singh become one night hero in english cubs talks doing a foolish comment on Pedersen, that is surely unacceptable in any form of a club language in public, I feel he is a great player and a good midfielder who controls the ball over 25 mts of each game. He may be slow in couple of month or season, but he is still doing a fair ground presence in club matches with experience. next day after this comment, he got a goal for club- that is the commitment to our club from this player, he is great in 25-30 yard freekick convertion too.

Burnley FC gearing up for their biggest season in history. Their existence in the Championship this season consists of two objectives - beat Blackburn and beat Bolton. Achieve either of those and their fans will celebrate their most successful season in living memory. That's it for a club of their 'calibre'.

You authorities say nothing, I repeat nothing, when all the dribble of scum and diarrhoea comes out of keans mouth! You imbiciles!!
Pederson is widely regarded as a down and out by rovers fans! He trips over balls like a pensioner, he runs up and down the pitch like a pensioner, and he even looks a little bit like a pensioner!
Shebby Singh should not be ashamed of one word he has said about peder 'zimmer frame' son, or baldy d1ck head either! He has only said what most of us rovers fans would have said if publically put in the limelight... And I don't give a sh1t if he's global advisor and you think he shouldn't be saying it, because we have news for you.... He should be saying it and he is right!
Thanks for the slight breath of fresh air shebby, whether it was a publicity stunt to sell season tickets or not! At least someone said it publically (and backed it up in his apology!! Haha!!)

Amost every fan hates Kean and because of this players who back Kean hate fans so much so that they wouldn't spit on us if we were on fire. So we have players who hate fans, but back Kean and players who hate Kean but back fans.
All in all we are 3 days away from the real action starting and we have nothing but in fighting arguing, cat calling and complete chaos yet again at our club.
A week in I would be amazed if this in fighting causes anything other than 2 or 3 defeats. I have never know success achieved in any walk of life unless at least a degree of organisation exists. Who gets the blame for this poor start remains to be seen. Take your pick, the fans, Shebby, the players the owners or the manager. Which ever way you look at it, unless this is sorted out fast, we will be looking down not up the league!

If anything, in light of the PFA decision to defend Pedersen, the LMA could feel duty bound to make a similar statement against Singh for his ad hominem against Kean. In what possible context do you imagine the LMA would intepret this as being an opportunity to attack one of it's own members for the comments about Allardyce which A) was presumed to have been made in confidence (not, as with Singh, in a public forum), and B) is apparently a matter being pursued in the civil courts? I don't even like Kean and agree he's not up to the job but the level of sheer nonsensical drivel vomited onto these comment pages, purely to have a pop at him, is getting beyond a joke now. Stick to capitalised KEAN/VENKY'S OUT slogans which, while tiresome, are at least succinct and bear some degree of logical sense.
The PFA has seen fit to come out and criticise Shebby Singh after the comments he made about Pedersen. I agree that the comments were shocking for a high ranking club employee to make, and Singh deserves all the criticism he gets. Presumably now it is time the LMA come out and make a statement about Steve Kean's equally shocking drunken rant against Sam Allardyce, which has been in the public domain for months and yet no comment from the authorities.

But on a more serious note I could hear last season people around me slagging Pederson off but any decent supporter will know how much good work he does in each game the lad will give his best unfortunately S.k does the game plan and that’s our problem we have a fitness coach managing the team. Good luck Rovers next season I be there supporting the team but not the manager KEAN OUT that will be best result in 18 months.

Unfortunately, Google Translate is a very poor translater and your attempts at communication maybe misconstrued. I can understand you backing lover-boy Kean to the hilt -- that's what happens when you have a crush on somebody -- but you seem to be saying Stevie W_n_er will be sacked after 3 consecutive losses. Is this really true? Even though he is a part shareholder of the club? Also what is Shabby Singe's status now? Will he still become manager if Kean has to be dismissed even though he is such a comedian?

A Man with a poor coaching CV and no scruples as defence coach.
A bodyguard as something else to do with the ground.
An advisor that can't advise without putting his foot in it.
Low and behold we go and get a rake of mid and forwards after finishing last season with a very good goal record and extreemly poor defence.
The normally reliable players were half the players they used to be, do some people think shouting out loud for the club will rectify all this shambles?

The PFA is quite right to protect its players from idiot mangement that thinks mouthing off and showing off to try to win an audience is the way to run a club.
Rovers will soon be in the relegation zone again and Kean and Shabby will still be draining every penny they can from a once proud and respected club which they have made into a laughing stock.

Rhubarb. He apologised so that is that. However, we are undoubtedly becoming the biggest laughing stock in football
BRFC are ALREADY the biggest laughing stock not only in UK football but across the entire globe.

It is pretty obvious that we have a very divided camp at Ewood. It doesn't take a genious to work out that Kean and Shebby are at loggerheads. Add to this the fact that the brothers don't agree with the sister. Brothers want rid of Kean, yet she makes the decison to keep him. I assume brothers wanted Singh appointed but sister didn't. Singh now tells fans Kean has X number of games to collect x number of points. Kean probably thinks, up yours pal, Mrs Desai will decide my fate not you.
Amost every fan hates Kean and because of this players who back Kean hate fans so much so that they wouldn't spit on us if we were on fire. So we have players who hate fans, but back Kean and players who hate Kean but back fans.
All in all we are 3 days away from the real action starting and we have nothing but in fighting arguing, cat calling and complete chaos yet again at our club.
A week in I would be amazed if this in fighting causes anything other than 2 or 3 defeats. I have never know success achieved in any walk of life unless at least a degree of organisation exists. Who gets the blame for this poor start remains to be seen. Take your pick, the fans, Shebby, the players the owners or the manager. Which ever way you look at it, unless this is sorted out fast, we will be looking down not up the league!

Well if the players have requested this it shows what massive in-fighting still exists in the club.

Or when he tried to blame the Rovers fans for spiking his drink, when he was caught 3 times over the legal drink/drive limit, on the phone and undertaking a police car?

But I have to agree with your last line BRFC is more significant as a comedy show and judging from Kean's comments about "Unity" the show goes on.
However, good luck for the forthcoming season you are going to need it in the Championship were a rude awakening beckons.
Hot tip for your new manager "Fred Karno"
