England's failure was a costly exit for Southport

Posted by Digital Editor on November 23, 2007 9:00 AM | 

ONE person who we doubt will be enjoying a happy Christmas this year is Steve McClaren who yesterday lost his job as boss of the England football team.
He has gone even before the turkeys, though he will have £2.5million burning a hole in his back pocket to cheer him up.
His failure, and that of his former charges, has cost owners and workers in Southport’s pubs, bars, supermarkets, hotels and sports shops among others hundreds of thousands of pounds next summer.
At least Southport FC is playing well, fighting hard for a place near the top of their league.
Let’s hope they can put smiles back on the faces of local football fans this season!
