' Former Cardiff manager Malky Mackay drops his legal claim against the club after reaching a settlement on his sacking. '

Mackay was dismissed in December after a difference of opinion with owner Vincent Tan about the direction of the club. Tan has since criticised Mackay's efforts in preparing the side for the Premier League, but the Scot issued a conciliatory statement through lawyers on Friday in which he apologised "without reservation" to the Malaysian businessman.

Mackay's statement, released through Slater & Gordon Lawyers, reads: "Today have reached a settlement agreement dropping all claims I have made against Cardiff City Football Club. I did not want to be in litigation and believe that it is in the best interests of all parties to have a clean break and move on."

' Malky Mackay apologises to Cardiff owner Vincent Tan '

Malky Mackay has apologised "without reservation" to Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan over the issues that led to his December, 2013 sacking by the club.

The Scotsman has also halted his legal action against the club.

Mackay said in a statement: "If I have caused any offence to anyone during this time, especially to Vincent Tan, then I apologise without reservation."

Official club statement

Further to the release of statements by Malky Mackay and Iain Moody, Cardiff City Football Club can confirm that Malky Mackay has dropped all legal claims against the Club, bringing a number of issues to an end and allowing both parties to move on.



The agreement represents a positive outcome for the Club. We now look forward and focus fully on planning for next season and the challenge of regaining Premier League status.



The statement from Malky Mackay, dated Friday 9 May 2014 reads:



[Start]



Today I have reached a settlement agreement dropping all claims I have made against Cardiff City Football Club. I did not want to be in litigation and believe that it is in the best interest of all parties to have a clean break and move on.



I have enjoyed my time at Cardiff City and am most grateful to the Board of Cardiff City and Tan Sri Vincent Tan for giving me the opportunity. The Club’s owner Mr Vincent Tan invested heavily in the Club and supported our decisions in our push for promotion to the Premier League. Without him this would not have been possible.



My thanks to all those at the Club and the fans who have supported me during my time in Wales. If I have caused any offence to any one during this time, especially to Tan Sri Vincent Tan, then I apologise without reservation.



I wish everyone associated with Cardiff City FC all the best for the future and thank them for their support.



I will not be commenting further on this matter.

If Norwich appoint Malky, he will take them straight back up next season no problems, hopefully not at our expense.

Good luck Malky, wherever it is you end up :thumbup: Do I think he will get promotion with Norwich? Quite probably. Would I want to watch his brand of football week in, week out? Never again. :thumbup:

Thank God we can just put one awful chapter of our history behind now. Now, onto Tan...

Re: ' MALKY MACKAY & TAN DO SETTLEMENT OUT OF COURT '

Fri May 09, 2014 1:23 pm

Now that the dispute is over, it will be interesting to see if the debt/equity conversion now happens or whether there will be another excuse given as a delay tactic. My money's on the latter.......

A vast number of settlements are done out of court and why did he apologise to Tan through lawers if he ( malky ) was right :?
