Former Toon (and Blackburn) manager Sam Allardyce has instructed lawyers to initiate proceedings against his Ewood Park successor Steve Kean.

The action comes in relation to unguarded comments made by Kean about Allardyce to supporters while secretly being filmed last summer.

The four-minute video, apparently filmed during Rovers' pre-season trip to Hong Kong, was released on the internet overnight.

In the video, Kean makes comments which appear to be critical of Allardyce during his conversation with fans in a bar.

In footage in which expletives are used, Kean also appears to predict Rovers will finish in the top half of the Premier League and win the Carling Cup.

Kean has been a hugely unpopular appointment since being promoted from within to replace the sacked Allardyce in December 2010.

There are various views - was Kean gullible telling his feelings to supporters? Should the supporter broadcast what was obviously an "off the record" conversation?
