Malky Mackay: Cardiff City sack manager

[Jazzy]

Malky Mackay has been sacked as Cardiff City manager after a meeting of the club's board of directors.

The move comes a day after a 3-0 home defeat by Southampton left Cardiff only one point above the relegation zone.

His dismissal follows a public row with Cardiff's billionaire owner Vincent Tan, who wrote to Mackay on 16 December asking him to resign or be sacked.

Tan also accused Mackay of overspending in the transfer market and announced the manager would have no money to spend in the January window.

The 41-year-old Scotsman refused to resign, and subsequently led the team in the matches against Liverpool and Southampton before his dismissal.

Mackay had been in charge at Cardiff for two-and-a-half years after taking over from Dave Jones in June 2011.

He guided the club back to the top flight of English football after a 52-year absence when they won the Championship title in 2013.
