McClaren's tenure was brought to an end on Thursday, less than 24 hours after England were knocked out of Euro 2008 at the qualifying stage. England, who only needed a draw against Croatia to seal their place at the finals in Austria & Switzerland, lost 3-2 at Wembley on Wednesday. McClaren was contracted up to the World Cup in 2010 - but he will not be seeing out the remaining 33 months of his contract after England's first failure to qualify for the finals of a major tournament since 1994. His reign is the shortest in the history of the English national team.
Can see him going back to Boro with Southgate getting the heave-ho if their form doesn't improve soon.
Bookes fav. or not, dont think Martin O'Neill is going anywhere either, even the Irish job. He doesnt need the hassle.
