Malky Mackay sacked by Cardiff City

By , Senior Reporter
Cardiff City announce that they have sacked manager Malky Mackay.

Cardiff City have announced that they have removed manager Malky Mackay from his position at the club.

The Scot had been under pressure at the Cardiff City Stadium after a disagreement with owner Vincent Tan, and after the club's 3-0 defeat to Southampton on Boxing Day, the Welsh outfit have announced his departure.

A statement on the club's official Twitter account read: "The Board of directors at Cardiff City have relieved Malky Mackay of his duties. A new first-team manager will be appointed in due course."

Mackay leaves Cardiff one point above the relegation zone in the Premier League table.
