Derby dismiss Steve McClaren

Derby have sacked Steve McClaren as head coach, the Sky Bet Championship side have announced.

McClaren, who succeeded Nigel Clough as boss at the iPro Stadium in September 2013, has paid the price for failing to guide the Rams to the Barclays Premier League this season.

Derby led the Championship in March but a wretched run of form saw them eventually finish eighth and miss out on a play-off place.

"Derby County have terminated the contract of head coach Steve McClaren with immediate effect," a statement on the club's website read.

"The decision follows a thorough review of the 2014/15 season by the club's board of directors.


Bookmakers on the next Derby boss sees Paul Clement as their 4/5 favourite with Sean Dyche 6/1 and the newly-available Sam Allardyce 8/1.

"The board believes that the appointment of a new Head Coach is required to continue the club's on-field progress and the search is now underway to appoint a successor.

"The board remains firmly committed and driven to achieving promotion to the Premier League.

"The club would also like to take this opportunity to wish Steve McClaren well for the future and thank him for his work throughout his tenure, which included a Play-Off Final appearance in 2014.
