Nottingham Forest has given Steve McClaren his first job in English football since an ill-fated spell in charge of the national team.
Ten years after being handed his first managerial job by Middlesbrough, the 50-year-old McClaren was given a three-year contract by second-tier side Forest on Monday.
McClaren was fired by England in November 2007 after his 18-month stint ended with failure to qualify for the 2008 European Championship.
After facing widespread ridicule, McClaren went to continental Europe to find employment again.
