Jay Bothroyd recommends Craig Bellamy for Cardiff City job

Jay Bothroyd believes that former Cardiff City teammate Craig Bellamy would be the ideal choice to manage the club.

Former Cardiff City striker Jay Bothroyd has expressed his belief that ex-Bluebirds teammate Craig Bellamy is the perfect man to manage the club.

Current Cardiff boss Russell Slade has come under fire from the club's supporters this season for some under-par performances, and it is thought that he could leave this summer.

Bothroyd, who played alongside Bellamy at Coventry City and Cardiff, believes that the 35-year-old Welshman would be a good fit.

"The manager's job at Cardiff would be a great first job for him," Bothroyd told BBC Sport.

"He's worked with great managers and trained with great clubs over the years. I'm sure he's taken a lot of things on board."

Bellamy has been taking his coaching badges with the Welsh FA after ending his playing career at Cardiff last year.
