Everyone's favorite chilled-out entertainer Brenda stood in front of the world last year and vouched for his friend's character, so this can't possibly be true.

Kind of puts Tan's attitude towards him in perspective if true.

Who has 7k texts and 100k emails handy for investigators? Bizarre.

I don't have that many text. But I probably have that many e-mails on my computer at work.

I had a feeling at the time that there was more to Mackay and Moody's sacking than at first met the eye. There was a rumour going round at the time that the pair were taking the piss out of Tan over transfers, but the rumour quickly died so I thought there was nothing in it.

Only allegations so far, nothing proven: still it wouldn't be the first club where murky financial deals have been done.

not 7,000 but 70,000 (seventy thousand)!!!! texts

this is only the start of things

Exactly. Once they start looking into the transfers I'll bet they find a lot of wrongdoing.

Assuming it to be true, does anyone else like the way Tan has played this?

He was publicly very quiet as Mackay and the media ran every Johnny Foreigner/pantomime villain angle they could think of, as well as suing him. All he said was that the truth would come out in due time, which it has - right when Mackay was getting back on his feet (in a management sense).

The corroboration from the former Cardiff player Farah adds to it. Hard to see Mackay working again, and rightly so.

If it's true, it's truly disgusting and I don't think Vincent Tan had any choice. However, Tan has his own brand of lunacy but at least his shit isn't malicious, just batshit crazy.

Absolutely. Tan's changing of club colours/crest and his suit/playing strip combo against us were ridiculous, but as it stands:

1) Mackay was sacked, suing Tan in response
2) Mackay withdraw the lawsuit, publically apologised and requested no compensation
3) Moody obtained the Cardiff team sheet while at Palace
4) The texts are disgusting and supported by claims of Farah
5) Palace failed to take Mackay on

Events suggests there's some truth to it all, even before getting to the rumoured financial impropriety.

Maybe Malky will be joining Keys and Gray in a new career elsewhere?
the 3 stooges reborn

Tan seems a total cunt to me either way & these two wankers are sadly typical imo, of the kind of 'old school' neanderthal shitbags who have infested football in this country for eons. Always 'good 'ol boys' with loads of friends in the game, but of course none of them knew they were being complete bigots, or any dodgy deals involved etc & everyone will be 'shocked & disappointed'.

I suspect that if there was any (ahem) financial impropriety, the tracks would be well covered. The content of the emails on there own, however would be enough to condemn the pair.

70,000 texts? Just shows these guys dont have much to do.

One of the claims is that for a 600k transfer there was a payment to an agent of 600k. I hope they both do time for it if they can prove it.

Silly twats. Serves em right.

sounds like he got what he deserved. sorry, but hard to put it any other way.

that behaviour has no place in a professional environment anywhere.

After 'Cakegate', is it possible this escapade will be now known as 'Malkygate' ??

A disgrace of a manager
A disgrace of a man
Hope we never see him in football again

Malky issues a denial. Someone ain't telling the truth them. Never understand why people in the public eye choose to lie through their teeth.
