Craig Bellamy: 'I turned down Cardiff City manager's job in December and wouldn't accept if offered it now'

Bellamy, 35, tipped Tony Pulis for the Cardiff job after revealing he could have moved into management with his hometown club last December
Cardiff City legend Craig Bellamy has sensationally revealed he turned down the chance to manage the club when Malky Mackay was sacked last December.
Bellamy, 35, says he was offered the Bluebirds top job after Mackay eventually left following the bitter breakdown of his relationship with owner Vincent Tan.
But he says he nipped it in the bud before a serious conversation was had about him taking on the managerial reins.
Meanwhile the club hero added that he wouldn't take the job if offered it now, adding the club is 'not right' for him at this moment in time.
Bellamy made the remarks while appearing on BT Sport's Clare Balding Show.
Asked what his answer would be if Vincent Tan was to ring him and ask him to manage Cardiff, Bellamy replied: "No, certainly not."
He added: "Look, I had the opportunity at Christmas to do it. When Malky left, they offered it to me then.
"Whether it was part-time... I didn't really give them the chance to get into too much of a conversation.

What do you mean, Annis, no more books? Somebody is going to have to write the definitive account of the Vincent Tan era. It won't last for ever.

Could have been a temp job until they found a new manager?
