Cardiff have named Russell Slade as their new first team manager.

Slade, who left League One Leyton Orient last month, has been touted for the Bluebirds' role following the exit of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on September 18, and the Sky Bet Championship club confirmed the appointment on Monday night.

Slade takes over with his new club languishing in 15th position following their relegation from the Premier League and with just one win in nine league games.
