London: Former Cardiff City boss Malky Mackay allegedly called the club&rsquo;s Malaysian owner Vincent Tan a &ldquo;chink&rdquo; in a text message, the Daily Mail newspaper reported on Saturday.

Mackay has been embroiled in controversy over claims that he and right-hand man Iain Moody swapped racist, sexist and homophobic SMS messages when they worked at the club.

The Mail published what it said was a fresh batch of offensive messages including one from June last year when Mackay, then Cardiff&rsquo;s manager, contacted Moody about a player they wanted to sign.
&ldquo;Not taking no for an answer from the chink until the 20th time or unless somebody big blows us out of the water. Can you tell him that,&rdquo; the message allegedly said. Tan controlled Cardiff&rsquo;s finances at the time and that the club&rsquo;s investigators believe that the text message referred to the owner.
Before Saturday&rsquo;s report emerged, the Scotsman apologised for what he said was three &ldquo;unacceptable&rdquo; text messages on Sky Sports News Friday. But he added: &ldquo;I am not racist, I am not sexist, I am no homophobe and I am not anti-Semitic.&rdquo;
