Vincent Tan bans ex-director Iain Moody from Cardiff City directors' box

Crystal Palace sporting director Iain Moody has been refused entry to the Cardiff City directors' box for today's Premier League clash between the two teams, according to reports.

The former Bluebirds head of recruitment, who was sacked by the Welsh club in October 2013, was allegedly denied entry by Vincent Tan, who made him sit with the away fans.

Moody, who was sacked by the Bluebirds in October 2013, maintains that he has never been given an explanation as to why the club dispensed with his services and replaced him with 23-year-old Alisher Apsalymov.

Moody was deemed ex-manager Malky Mackay's 'right-hand man'.
