Cardiff: 10 Incredible Stats You Won't Believe From The Malky Mackay Era
The season of goodwill seems to have given Malky Mackay a stave of execution at Cardiff City. Widespread support for the Scot has made club owner Vincent Tan withdraw his threat to sack the manager unless he resigns.
Mackay refused to quit the Bluebirds after steering them into the Premier League for their maiden campaign. Cardiff fans should be enjoying their first taste of top flight football for more than half a century, but the circus surrounding the strained relationship between manager and owner has been an unsightly sideshow.
Commentators, including former Bluebirds striker Rob Earnshaw, believe Mackay being fired is inevitable. The Scot expected to be sacked himself. Whether that happens in the 2014 remains to be seen, but with the Sword of Damocles still hanging over Macaky the WhatCulture sports team began to wonder whether the stats make a case one way or another.
