[Archived] BRFC Action Group Open Floor Meeting with Shebby Singh

[Ossydave]

Sorry I realised it could be misinterpretted- I simply responded to Ossydave's comment that Shebby would be a popular interview trarget by saying I didn't think he'd be giving any more interviews.

Fair do's. To be honest it sounded like a hint he wouldn't be at the club much longer.

[DE.]

We'll see how much Shebby wants to speak and communicate when Kean has lost his three games on the bounce and still remains at the helm.

Will Shebby make himself known, or will he "do a Venky's" and go into hiding?

He will instantly become as hated as Kean/Venkys if he doesn't stick to his word, a lot of people see him as our only hope now.

Be warned Mr Singh - it's time for the bull$hit to end.

[47er]

Not really getting slated, the coach just said he's been below par.

But anyway, from that article:

This is the crux of it for me. Yes, MGP has been poor in recent seasons in terms of his overall impact on the team and on games. He's hit a few decent free kicks and managed a handful of assists, but all too often he becomes Morten Gamst Passenger and has no impact on the game. He wimps out of tackles, passes to opposition players, skips around the pitch aimlessly and fails to track players. These are the key issues with Pedersen.

Shebby Singh referred to none of this. He said that Pedersen has "lost his legs" and spoke about him running for 90 minutes. These comments, to me, show Singh up for the know-nothing idiot he is. Yes, Pedersen has problems, but his pace or fitness isn't one of them. Shebby doesn't have a clue, thus he should apologise to MGP and everybody else for making ignorant comments and bringing even more shame upon the club. Everybody wants communication but if a clueless Malaysian TV pundit is the best Venky's can offer they might as well just stay silent.

Similarly, Shabby said he was confident we would be promoted this season but that we would be playing ugly football, "it won't be pretty". Yet we are assembling a squad of tippy-tippy attacking mid- fielders and strikers and ignoring the defense! Its just BS"

[thenodrog]

Haven't posted on here for a while and Ive only just caught the Shebby interviews!

We really are a club with no class at the minute

Quite a withering indictment coming from a Stokie boy.

[Rovermatt]

Some people on here seem both surprised and disappointed by this latest episode of stupidity by a club employee. Singh is not an ally of the fans. So what if he comes off worse in a tussle with the odious Kean?

This idiot is simply the latest moron employed by the craven Indians to run interference with the rowdy supporters and to drag a once proud club's name further through the gutter.

As far as I'm concerned, if you employ a professional yarn-spinner like Singh to represent the club then he's going to do and say stupid things. Provided he isn't offered up as a sacrificial lamb in a month's time (which is what I suspect his ultimate purpose to be) then we can expect more of this idiocy.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

The guy may be a motormouth @#/? but he's dead right about Pedersen. Do you really think but for Shabby spilling the beans nobody else in football would have known he's a passenger. That's why he's still here ! If we get a fee for him it will be a miracle, if we can off load the guy for free I'll be delighted. Exactly the sort of player you don't want in the Chumpionship. Having said that he's not on his own at Rovers.

[RoyRover]

I see Shebby as someone who has been bought in to say the right things, try to get the fans on side and take some of the heat off Kean. In fact I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Kean was in full knowledge of what Singh would say at the meeting, knowing that the fans would be asking for his removal and knowing that Singh would say three games, so that when the inevitable results happen and Kean fails to be fired the fans would be outraged even more. They then continue to voice their disgust at Kean, who continues to get the sympathy vote and act the martyr. I really believe that's how low the people in charge would go.

He also said he absolutely knew what's needed to get promotion this season. How can he, how long has he been in the game in this country?

It's obvious that having been given the green light from Mrs D to do whatever is needed, Shebby wants primarily to get involved with transfers and team selection and team affairs. I bet he can't believe his luck. Given a professional football club with the standing of Blackburn Rovers and being allowed to do what ever he wants.

[Ste B]

Do we really have to use terms such as @#/? / moron to describe people nowadays ?

[Ferrit]

You can buy a football club, but you can't buy class... Shebby is the proverbial scape goat. I predict he will be gone before Stevie boy.

Absolutely no doubt about it. As others have said the interviewers will be licking their lips in anticipation of giving Shebby a shovel, we all know he'll keep digging.

Only a matter of time before he pisses enough people off with the garbage he spouts, and he'll be shown the door.

Bit rich though isn't it when Shabby apologised or had to, depending what you believe, while Venkys have made no attempt to apologise to supporters for ruining the club in 2 years and Kean has not apologised for his obscene and drunken rant against

Sam.

Not really, im sure kean will have to defend himself in a court of law for what he said about BFS, if kean makes a public appology then that might be a admission of guilt when he comes to defend himself.

as for singh hes only said was most of this messageboard have been saying for years about mgp, also hes set the stage for a battle of power with kean, I for one hopes Shebby wins.

Is tony gales mic back?!

[broadsword]

Is tony gales mic back?!

Looking at my ignore list last night, his account's been delted i think

[CheeseOnToast]

I'm sorry to say that Rovers are well fecked at this point. Not to the degree of Pompey, mind, but I don't see Blackburn crawling back to the premiership soon with these owners, this manager, and Shebby as director of football..

[OJRovers]

Anyone know anything of the moves Kean has been making since saturday behind-the-scenes to discredit Shebby?

[Stuart]

What've you heard, OJ?

[perthblue02]

Anyone know anything of the moves Kean has been making since saturday behind-the-scenes to discredit Shebby?

My guess would be

1. Make phone calls to Barnet and Zurich 2. give Agnew a bone then pat him on the head and tickle his tummy 3. open a bottle of red, bottle to glass, glass to mouth - repeat step 3 until bedtime

[alexanders]

Thanks to this we are now seen as a laughing stock in Norway as well. Of course the norwegian media only report what is said about Gamst. And the fact that the director comes out and rubbish him isnt good. The national coach Egil Drillo Olsen have come out and said Ewood Park is a rotten place and maybe it is time for Gamst to move.

Gamst himself says he will decide when he comes back from national duty. Thursday / Friday.

Fingers crossed then !

You can just imagine both Agnew and Kean rattling around Ewood full or anger and resentment at Singhs comments, maybe now those two idiots get some idea of just how we feel at Keans continued employment.

Singhs a muppet of the highest order, but he's made me smile for the past few days after his Kean comments, no matter how hollow his claims is that he'll be out after 3 losses.
