Out of interest, how many British managers have jobs in other European leagues? I'd guess not that many.
Malky Mackay | Sacked by Wigan Athletic

If any of them are looking for a racist, sexist, homophobic pillock. Malky is their man.

They only tend to live British shores when exiled or humiliated. McClaren rebuilt himself from scratch for that reason.
If Mackay is prepared to uproot his family, I don't think he'd have a problem with employment if deemed skilled enough to do the job.
One would hope his career in England is over with at all levels.
I assume like the players, the managers are getting better wages in the PL or Championship than abroad.
Who was it, Adnan? The tweet seems to have been deleted...
*EDIT: Have seen them, mate. Cheers!

Far fecks to Tan. He was vindicated.
They actually don't have any member of the human race in charge at the minute.
That, too.
Little incentive to go abroad. More of a punishment than anything else, which is a shame.
And people wonder why gay footballers are afraid to come out.
Makes you wonder how many other people in football are racist, sexist scum and we have no idea.
Well of course they made a fuss, he was successful at Cardiff and they weren't aware of the full facts, it's perfectly understandable they'd back the manager over Tan who has been contreversial to say the least. Most of the ones I know (I live 15 minutes from Cardiff) are gutted by this, but the ones who don't like Tan disliked him way before he sacked Mackay and that isn't changing any time soon.
Yes they do. Ole? It's Palace that don't have a manager.
I'd imagine there's loads of people and at all levels as well, from top to bottom. What Malkay said is terrible but I'm not surprised either and I'd say that deep down most people really are too. I do hear similar enough remarks myself from lads I play football with and against most weeks.
From the little I've read, most of them still seem to think Tan is a cnut for the re-brand etc. but he's right for everything else. There's is still one weirdo on some Cardiff forum defending Malky though.
Probably a lot more than people would think.
Any links ?
Totally differant, he went out and proved he was a decent manager after the disaster that was England.
Mackay is just a nasty human being and deserves to be exiled from football for ever.
This is really sad, had genuine sympathy for him after the unceremonious sacking. Never knew he would turn out to be such a manipulative, xenophobic, sexist bully. It's scary when people like him snake their way into positions of relative power. Don't they even think about their families before commuting such indiscretions ? His kids will most probably be painted with the same brush no matter how liberal they might turn out to be. Unfortunate turn of events for them.
Atleast Cardiff have Ole now.

Yeah he was probably sitting on the info until Mackay's next appointment before releasing this bombshell for maximum impact. Delightfully evil.
Ta.
I remember listening to a football weekly from last season at around this time, and AC Jimbo did a bit of a defense of tan - stating he was only getting stick because he's a big, bad, foreign owner, when really he was fully justified in getting rid of Mackay...
So in short, we one should always listen John Richardson.

Yeah Marcotti knew about Mackay as well, judging by his tweets yesterday. Seems like more than a couple of journalists knew the truth, but couldn't say it in public.
This Moody chap doesn't half have an incredibly punchable face. To completly judge a book by it's cover, he looks like one of those blokes who thinks he is the greatest thing known to man because he wears a suit and owns a *gasp* work phone.
What did Marcotti say?
Wow, horrible git! Messed with the wrong one......served well and truly cold.
I actually had no sympathy for him when he got sacked, they were the 3rd or 4th biggest spenders in the country and the signings were largely terrible. He then asks for money without discussing it with the Vincent Tan. If I was the owner, I'd be quite annoyed too.
Makes a lot more sense now that Tan asked him to resign. Was weird at the time.
What a scumbag. Credit to Tan for being willing to be so vilified to get rid of him. Wonder why it is only coming out now though.

Basically agreeing with Malachians that Mackay was a horrible person and that the story at the time was Malky/Moody good, Tan mad/bad.
S***e. My bad. I somehow thought you were talking about Crystal Palace even though you were clearly talking about Cardiff!
Hahaha
There's a tendency in British Media(and here too) to portray Asian as chairman as crazy idiots who have no idea about Football. You got idiots like Venky's but then there are the owners at Leicester City or at Cardiff who have done nothing but good for the club.
It was all just a bit of friendly text message banter, chums. Nothing to worry about. Oh, and it should also be noted for those of you with high pressure jobs: stress makes you racist.

Indeed. That's the sad thing. It's clear now that people knew about this on some level, but they either were afraid or were stupid to not let it be known.
That statement actually makes me sick. If you're under pressure it's understandable to be racist sexist and discriminatory? feck off.
That statement is actually incredible.
That's what a I keep telling all these goddamn ...... !
I'm baffled. Do these people not think?
It was just "banter" apparently.
