Neil Harris is SACKED by Cardiff following six-game losing streak that has left them 15th in Championship… as owner Vincent Tan insists ‘sadly we are in a result-orientated business and progress has been very poor’
Cardiff have sacked manager Neil Harris after a run of six straight defeats.
Harris was appointed in November 2019 and leaves Cardiff in 15th place in the Sky Bet Championship, 13 points from the play-off places.
Cardiff owner Vincent Tan told the club website: ‘I’d like to thank Neil and David (Livermore, assistant manager) sincerely for their hard work at Cardiff City.
‘Their efforts to propel us towards a fifth-place finish and play-off position last year are recognised and appreciated, although sadly we are in a result-orientated business and our on-field results of late and progress this season has been very poor.
‘As such, we have had no choice but to relieve them of their duties in an effort to improve results and league position with a change of manager.’
