| After an explosive 90-minutes in Wembley Stadium, England's recently
resurrected dream of Euro 2008 qualification came to an end at the
hands of Croatia. Petric's goal in the 77th minute sealed England's
fate and now throws Steve McClarens tenure as manager into serious
doubt.
Some small respite for punters emerged tonight as Paddy
Power offered to refund all losing single first/last goalscorer,
correct score & scorecast bets on this evening's match if
England failed to qualify. This is estimated to cost the Bookmaker
in excess of £100,000.
Ex-Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been installed as the Bookmakers
4/1 to replace Steve McClaren and the next permanent England Manager.
