LONDON, Nov 22 (AFP): Steve McClaren paid the price of England's failure to qualify for Euro 2008 Thursday when he was unceremoniously dismissed from his position as head coach.
McClaren, who had refused to resign, was sacked less than 12 hours after a 3-2 win for Croatia at Wembley, combined with Russia's 1-0 win in Andorra, confirmed that England would miss out on a major tournament for the first time since the 1994 World Cup in the United States.
