Ex-England boss Steve McClaren quits as Jamaica manager after Curacao

Former England manager Steve McClaren suffered more major-tournament qualifying embarrassment overnight as his Jamaica team lost out to Curacao for a place at the World Cup - the smallest nation ever to reach the finals. McClaren, 64, was derided as 'the Wally with the brolly' when he failed to lead England to Euro 2008 in the Wembley rain at the hands of Croatia. And now he has quit his job in the Caribbean after Jamaica failed to qualify with a 0-0 draw against minnows Curacao. Instead, the Reggae Boyz will be left to fight it out for a place at next summer's tournament in a play-off tournament.
