Who in their right mind would want to work for Tan?

The Cardiff City owner is treating a proud club like his little toy.

Malky MacKay became the latest managerial casualty this season when he was sacked by Cardiff City on Friday. But his dismissal is without doubt the most controversial yet.

Club owner Vincent Tan’s decision was completely and utterly ridiculous. There is no justification, that I can see, for relieving big Malky of his duties.

The guy led the club into the Premier League and was doing a more than decent job of keeping them there. It’s not as though they’ve had a nightmare start to the season and started at the foot of the table.

So why sack him?

I don’t buy into the story about the manager overspending by £15m in the summer. That’s nonsense. Malky handled a difficult situation with the eccentric Tan really well.

He’ll walk straight into another job and it wouldn’t surprise me if he ended up taking over at West Brom.

Tan is pretty much treating Cardiff City like it’s his own little toy. You only have to look at the way this clown has conducted himself in the last few weeks.

If ever a situation highlighted the dangers of having a foreign owner who doesn’t care for the history of the club then it has to be what is happening in South Wales. Why buy a club and then want to change the team colours?

Cardiff City have always been associated with blue yet this guy comes in and wants to change it to red! That basically tells you he cares nothing for the history of the club.

It’s the same at Hull City, where their owner wants to actually change the name of the club to Hull Tigers. The fans have been protesting at matches, but like Cardiff, it is falling on deaf ears.

That really is a terrible shame. It’s as though what the fans want means nothing to these people.

I remember the days when, if the fans loved a manager, then he stayed in the job. If they didn’t, he left. But managers who are hugely popular with the fans are now being axed.

And as much as someone will take the job, you’ve got to ask yourself who in their right mind would want to work for this guy? I don’t know if there is actually anything supporters can do to force people like Tan to start showing their club more respect.

If he found himself sitting in the Director’s Box with no fans in the stadium, he might get the message.

But there is going to come a time when we witness more and more boycotts from fans in protest at owners using their club as a toy.
