Euro 2008 Odds Latest - McClaren Out?
Bookmakers William Hill have cut the odds about Lawrie Sanchez becoming the next England manager from 100/1 to 33/1 and have made Steve McClaren 11/8 to cease to be England boss before England finish their qualifying games; and 6/5 to be gone by the time the Euro 2008 Finals start.
He is 8/13 still to be in charge when the finals get underway.
"Steve McClaren's body language is certainly suggesting that he is not enjoying the pressure and one more defeat is likely to prove fatal to his chances of survival" said William Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.
"Absolutely no-one is prepared to back McClaren to see the job through to the Euro Finals and beyond. At half time of the Andorra game our 33/1 that he would be gone by midnight after the game looked a great bet."
William Hill believe that McClaren may be facing a threat from within his own camp - and they have installed his right hand man, Terry Venables as 5/1 joint favourite to succeed him on a permanent basis.
Martin O'Neill is also 5/1 joint favourite, with Stuart Pearce 8/1 joint third favourite along with Curbishley and Scolari; they then offer: 10/1 Allardyce; Coppell; 12/1 Mourinho; 14/1 Alan Shearer; 25/1 Wenger.
There is some good news for McClaren - William Hill make him a 2/1 chance to leave his job before his England Cricket equivalent, Duncan Fletcher, who is 4/11 to depart before McClaren.
England are now 4/7 with Hills to qualify for the finals - 5/4 not to; 11/4 to win their Group (4/6 Croatia; 10/3 Russia; 33/1 Israel) and 8/1 to win Euro 2008.
