The Rovers legend, who scored 48 goals in 349 appearances for the club, was back in Blackburn on Friday night for a sold-out Q&A evening with over 300 supporters.

Pedersen took a trip down memory lane, as he entertained a packed Premier Suite with stories about his career at the club, before answering questions from his adoring fans on a wide range of Rovers-related topics.

The Norwegian international spoke about his favourite games, goals, players and managers from his time in blue-and-white, as well as providing an interesting insight about his life away from Lancashire.

After spending three and a half hours at the stadium on Friday night, Morten was back at Ewood on Saturday for the local derby against Preston North End.

He was a special guest in the Roverstore ahead of the game, where he signed autographs and posed for photos, before being given a rapturous reception as he made his way out onto the pitch pre-match.

The 38-year-old returned to the hallowed turf at half-time, to conduct the Lottery draw, before presenting Stewart Downing with the Man of the Match award in the Premier Suite after the game.

It was great to have you back, Morten!

Morten’s memorable Rovers return!
