Former Sheffield United defender Sam Wedgbury has spoken of his bad experience under current Cardiff City assistant manager Kevin Blackwell.
The 29-year-old spent four years at Sheffield United between 2006 and 2010, and part of that time was spent working under Kevin Blackwell
"Wedgbury revealed: “The last year, that was under Kevin Blackwell.
“He’s not great with the young lads – awful with the young lads.
“I was in the squads and stuff. I was with the first-team every day at that point, in the Championship.
As a young player, I was still only 20,21 and I had been out on loan and they stuck me back in.
I was warming up, before the derby at Bramall Lane against Sheffield Wednesday.
“I thought ‘I’m in here’. I thought ‘I’ll get a chance here’. It was me and another lad, Matty Lowton, who is at Burnley now.
“Then, all of a sudden, I was coming into training every day and staff were just hammering me for no reason.
“I didn’t think anything of it. They were just on me all the time. I didn’t do anything wrong, they were just battering me, making me do doggy runs.
In circle work, they were putting me in the middle all the time – basically bullying.” ETC
