Category: MANAGER_FIRED (#135)
Provided is: 1 person (the former manager), 1 team (the one which fired the manager)

Please write a New Story for a manager, who is fired.
Quotes by the GM and manager might dress it up.

Example #1
The rumors had been swirling for weeks, and the Boston Shamrocks made it official today by firing manager Dick Williams. The Shams will go with an interim manager until candidates can be interviewed. Third base coach Louie "Lips" Duroche will take over. GM Larry McPhail told SION reporters that he hadn't seen any progress in the club this year and decided to make the change. Williams, who is in his second year of handling the team, said he was disappointed that he wasn't given more time. "Nowadays nobody has any patience. Management and the fans want you to compete right away. Nobody wants to give you time...and you simply can't turn a team around overnight. It is a lengthy process, especially when you are going the rebuilding route, using young players. Give this club a couple of more years and you will see the difference.I hate to leave before the job is done, but it is not my decision. I just hope they give the next guy the time that he needs."
