This is the problem. Cardiff say that not all the conditions had been met and, therefore, wasn't their player.

Poor form. Football showing it’s true colours again

Both pay half is the simple way to resolve it. Throw in some monies for his family and job done.
By the looks of things, the transfer was murky to begin with and was a money making opportunity for the agent(s), but I could be wrong.

Tough lessons all round for the management of transfers in the current era. It also shows up the fact that if agents are going to take responsibility for their clients then they need to take it seriously. No more easy money for old rope.

A brutal exposure of the grubby moneygrabbing filth that goes on in football. McKay is an absolute wrongun, and Cardiff looking to weasel their way out of this deal through the smallprint, having openly paraded him as their player, is frankly revolting.
But then in football, anything goes. Its ALL about the money.

Can you imagine what his family are going through with everyone blaming everyone else and refusing to cough up ? Appalling and disgraceful.

For once we agree. Football in the 21st century often leaves a bad taste in the mouth.Now where is my semi final ticket?

Sounds like Tan should review all Cardiff's transfers in depth, just in case. Perhaps signing Jack and Paul McKay to Cardiff, sons of agent dad Willie, would be a good place to start. Not saying there's anything wrong with that. Presumably Jack and Paul benefitted from signing on fees and a pay rise and rightly so, joining Premier League Cardiff. Their agent dad Willie must have been very proud of them. Perhaps, as their alleged agent, he benefitted too from their moves and rightly so. Both have gone out on loan now as maybe not quite ready for the Premier League just yet. It might look to outsiders as a legitimate way to put money the way of the McKay family in exchange for services rendered during transfer negotiations when flights and stuff need to be arranged to oil the wheels of a move. Obviously, that would be ridiculous for a big club like Cardiff, but maybe it would be worth Tan taking a closer look, just in case he is being ripped off without his knowlege? There is all sorts of paper talk about murky dealings around transfers, so I'm sure McKay and his family would welcome a closer investigation in to his dealings to prove everything is above board.

McKay managed to sound dodgy as hell in his last round of 'it wasnt me guv' interviews. FIFA deregulated the agents, so maybe they should take some of the responsibility and aggressively regulate the agents to prevent all the shady dealings and abuse of players.

Stay classy Cardiff. Pay up.
I may be giving him too much credit with regards to such a large sum of money, but gut feeling with this story is:-

Disgusting behaviour. They can't jump on the tragedy train then claim to not be contractually bound to the player.
Scummy behaviour. They should be ashamed of themselves, the money grabbing tosspots.
