The Retreat from Moscow....


Football Association chief executive Brian Barwick has given England boss Steve McClaren his backing, despite the Euro 2008 qualifying defeat in Russia (England lost 2-1 yesterday).
England must beat Croatia in November and hope Russia lose or draw one of their last two Group E games against Israel and Andorra to reach the finals.
Despite yesterday's setback, at the moment England can still qualify and while that chance exists (no matter how slim), now is not the time to consider a new manager.
Let's wait and see how England's qualifying campaign concludes, before shouting "McClaren must go".
