Malky Mackay says that he hopes Cardiff City can play a part in a 'triple crown' of Welsh wins this weekend.

Malky Mackay has said that he hopes Cardiff City can play a part in a 'triple crown' of Welsh wins this weekend.

The Bluebirds face Liverpool in the Carling Cup final on Sunday, a day after Wales take on England in the Six Nations and Nathan Cleverly defends his world light-heavyweight title.

"Wales are playing England the day before, Cleverly is fighting on the Saturday night, we've got the Sunday at Wembley and they have thrown in St David's Day next week too," Mackay said.

"The Welsh rugby team are flying high at the minute and I see some of the work they put in here at the training camp next to us. I'm delighted for them and the way they are on a high and wish them the best at Twickenham.

"We had Nathan up at the training ground one day and he did a little stint for charity. It will be great if he wins, fantastic for Cardiff and Wales if he is world champion.

"Then we're going to Wembley the day after. And we are not tourists going up to London just to make up the numbers."

Mackay recently signed a new three-and-a-half-year deal with Cardiff.
