After 18 months, Steve McClaren was fired as the head of the English national team; it was the shortest tenure of any English coach before him.

Last night, former 2002 World Cup Korean coach Guus Hiddink, led the Croatian team to a 3-2 win over England which kicked the Brits out of qualifying for last year’s Euro Cup. 

McClaren was a big prick and never got his young players disciplined enough (ie. Rooney) and turning on Becks probably wasn’t that good of an idea either (considering after Beckham got into the game, he got an assist for England to tie it up with a sick cross).
