' MALKY MACKAY TO RETURN ? '

Ive had 2 Jacks today FB me and say there were rumours that Malky might have been spoken to?

I hope 100% its Not true and I don't believe it for one moment.

Neither do I Annis and like you I hope there is nothing in it at all.

Carl,I really hope not as if he did well there, we would be the laughing stock once again.

The laughing stock is actually believing this would ever happen. They have a philosophy and they'll stick to it. Malky had no actual philosophy, no plan B and was wasteful in the transfer market. I seem to remember that last season that you were adamant Malky was holding out for jobs and was 'bigger than some clubs' one including two time European Cup winners Nottingham Forest. In the end he took the Wigan job, spent a fortune on wages and more or less got them relegated. He's now been linked to Championship strugglers Charlton. He is NOT a Premier League manager. He's a lower half Championship manager at best

The one part of your flawed argument that stands out is the "He's a lower half Championship manager at best", in fact he is a Championship winning manager at least.

That's what he's won but not what his ability is. McDermott won the league with Reading but how did he fair with Leeds?
Roy Keane won the league with Sunderland but how did he fair with Ipswich?

The facts are there, first year for Cardiff Top 6/Play-offs,Carling Cup Final. Second Year Runaway Champions/first time back in the Top League for City in 51 years and Malky was the manager.
Thats now part of our Great History and on Malky's CV

He upset his employer by getting caught in schoolboy banter with racist connotations.

He signed a player for 8million pounds who wasn't even worth 10% of that.

That, too, will be on his CV.

Is that the same player that the club sold for £4m, which by basic maths is 50% not 10%.

Nottingham Forest were relegated under Brian Clough, so what is your point ?

Are you saying that Clough was a failure ?

Not at all. You can't compare Malky and Clough

But you say it wasn't Malky's ability that got us promoted, it's just something he won.



There's me thinking you are successful based on your ability and what you achieve, I must be doing something wrong.

Why isn't Malky Mackay manager of a team in the top 6 of the Champ or lower half of the Prem?

It won't happen, Swansea play football. I cant recall Malky's teams playing anything resembling football.

What a strange line of work is the title of Football Manager,as in monks case new contract 3 months ago ,sacked on the spot,I guess a £3 million f..k off.
Next ,picking the new manager,.....can I see your CV. Ah,I notice you've plenty of previous experience,managed 6 football clubs,SACKED 6 times,start Monday.
What other line of employment would work along those lines?

Malkyball was very effective in the Championship to be fair. We were found out a bit in the top league.

To be fair it could happen, the club totally fucked him over

But it's not effective in the Premier League especially with the players there at the club at the moment. Bielsa would be a good appointment for them but they'd have to listen to HIS philosophies rather than persisting with the philosophy they've deployed so far in the Premier League. It's a big appointment for them now. Do they choose someone who will listen to them on philosophy and signing players? (I'm sure their board signed Naughton in January for Monk) and signed for example Emnes when Laudrup was there. Or do they allow someone who puts their own stamp on things? The players there at the moment are possession based players because that's what the club buys into

I did not bother to read half his post, after I had read his first line.
Spot on Carl and the only manager to ever achieve that for Cardiff City

With funds, the biggest funds in the clubs history. I applaud his achievements in his first season, building a team that achieved a cup final and a sixth placed finish but we all know the money was the reason we got promoted. It was promotion or bust for us really, a three year plan sped up .

So in season one, he reached a cup final and play offs.

In his second season, he won the Championship.

In his short lived but third season, he got decent results in the Premier League and never dropped into the bottom three.

But he is a lower championship manager.

Yea great basis for your argument, not !!

And his fourth season ?

Absolutely no chance.

In his second season, he won the Championship.

Do you really think Malky would have kept us out of the bottom three with our January fixtures? May have got us a win against Sunderland but do you think we'd have beaten Arsenal away, West Ham Home, Man City and Man United away? In the month where he asked for even MORE funds to the £50m he had spent in the summer.
How did Malky fair(with Wigan apparently having the highest wage bill in League One) ?

Absolutely no chance.

Totally agree,he's pissed on his chips.

We will never know but I think there was only one way we were heading and that's down. Sadly we had been found out and I think he had lost the dressing room.

Destroyed by Tan

Absolutely no chance.

NeiI I 99% agree with you, but as I said earlier in life you Never say never as we live in a world that anything could happen

Malky my arse!!! They want someone to carry on their free-flowing beautiful game style.

On that I agree totally with

Absolutely no chance.

Annis I think it's 99.9%. I know you are a fan of Malky but the chances of him getting any Premiership job are impossible. His reputation has taken too much of a hit.

Destroyed by Tan

Wigan Athletic ?

Malay is finished, the football grapevine will assure that, not out of the woods yet as far as Tan is concerned still wants to know where is 20 million over spend went.

Not April 1st is it. Most ridiculous thread on here for ages!!! And there have been some shockers

He has little to chance of any job never mind a prem job But if by some miracle he did get a job in the PL it certainly wouldn't be Swansea, because however much we hate them, they do like to play decent, attractive football and that alone would rule Malky out !!

Cheered up a dull Wednesday though so thanks for that.

Utter rubbish. They are going to appoint an experienced manager, MAlky has no chance.

Absolutely no chance.

I will go with that Neil 99.9% of Malky not getting the Job, but your right I will never stop supporting him for what he achieved at Cardiff City

malky would take them down so i dont think they will give him the job

Malky my arse!!! They want someone to carry on their free-flowing beautiful game style.

Yep, just 3 wins this season they certainly are beautiful
